ive got a ko3 turbo for now looking to upgrade once ive got used to the conversion and stopped breaking things
200bhp is plenty in a mk1 any more and your just better on having only 4th and 5th gear
but the grin factor of 300bhp all wheel drive will be amusing good luck
if you get stuck i can help with some advice

ive been using my car for a few weeks now without any problems apart from cramp in my face from the grinning

at last
been driving the car for a month now only running 2psi so i could give it a good shake down luckily nothings broken yet so thats a start
well today i went to see a guy from cgti in london to get it mapped and what can i say oh my god ive created an animal
so now im running 7 psi all the maps were adjusted nicely around this big shout to my partner in crime toyotec hes the man when it comes to mapping anyway while we on the private airstrip we did some testing using the g-tech pro
we were getting 1/4 mile times of 14.2 seconds but thats with the car spinning in 1st 2nd 3rd realy hard to get traction but what a day the most chucklesome day ever
next stage will be to increase the boost in 2 psi increments until it gets to a point where the car is 1/4 mile monster
theres is a video but i may need to edit it as the airstrip was busy today

heat
it was more like a show than a meet way to many people 300 plus they reckon
car drove perfectly there but on the way back we had a minor problem with it jumping from 2 to 4 cylinders any way got back ok and it turns out the coilpack loom is getting heat soak from the engine causing the soldered joints to come apart
so just off to see if i can get some heat proof wrap for that part of the loom no major problem just a pain when your travelling a long distance
got some footage from last sunday showing the car does run excuse the commentry eddie was in the mood to impress

hmm
as for the ecu i can supply megasquirt units which is what i run ive had no problems since the car has been on the road the ecu will control evreything and more
once the engine is in and mounted its pretty much a case of finding all the little bits n pieces that you will need nothing is impossible my friend trust me :wink:

Vman, you do know that you are not texting this
U sure you are from Motherwell, mate? U sound like you are from an Island in Jamaica :wink:
I am only kidding…
Vman, I know of the place in Motherwell ( i used to live near it) I have heard mixed reports from them about the guy's attitude, although he does get alot of timewasters, but that's no excuse for the way you were treated.
