Idrees Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 Cheers guys! I should have a Jam ECU soon, so I'm going to run the TD05 at around 1 bat for a while as long as the ECU fuels it right. I've had the cylinder head skimmed and pressure tested, that will be going back on with a new Athena MLS 1.2mm headgasket when it arrives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Awesome! I'll like to see how the ECU fares with the TD05, will you be getting the fuelling/power checked on a Dyno at any point?Were there any problems with the head/block then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 Yeah I'll have it checked on a dyno. The head was a tiny tiny bit warped, so hopefully the skimming will have it sorted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Cleaned up the front arches before fitting the suspension and brakesFollowed by the Power GetterBack on 4 wheelsI've sold some awesome parts off the car that may come again in the future but nothing fancy yet. Race-tech TD05 kit, Emanage Ultimate, Custom inlet manifold to name a few. I have made a couple of new purchases in the mean time too. Athena MLS 1.2mm HeadgasketJam ECU I px'd the EMU for (not sure how long this is staying as I don't know what turbo is going on next, could well be a CT9. HKS filter I had sitting around with a new foam replacement Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Glad to see you are still cracking on with it mate so what if you end up running a ct9, atleast it will be out and about after all its your demo car keep up the good work buddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
