turbo-fever

I am after a 6 point rollcage and some rs watanabes for my ep82 anyone has one let me know Thanks Neil

well got me car back from engine advantages today and wow lol it made 231bhp @ fly, 180 @ wheels with 212ft at 16 psi, on the td04 setup and the car is completely different i knew it would be laggy but dont get full boost till like 4000 to 4500 then whammm!!! lol she is off havnt been able to drive it properly yet as its to bloody wet!!!

yer i know mention street racing and you become hated ooops i said it lol

o dont worry it will be on private property so no legal duties there lol

video of course mate gonna be exciting lol

o yer sorry u cheated lol 1.5

well people just a quick write really jus to say only 5 more days till she is bac on the road

yer will let u know wen we out and about rick u never know and noisy boy i think the glanza would win beacuse it has less weight so there for more power to weight but if the the astra had the head finished would be outrun at topend but still wat a race a 1.3 turbo vs 2.0 turbo couldnt be anything better lol

thats pretty damn good then if u dont get to much wheelspin more power to the ground lol finally good to see a fast glanza around apart from dan (starlet3sgte) in the gt u 2 only quick 1s about i think raced so many down lakeside on my old 195hp ct9 setup and none were all that really lol but lovley glanza anyway mate will message u on here see wen u goin out etc on like sat nights so we can meet up

o i know i agree with ya lol do u get any traction problems me mates astra spins alway through 3rd and its heavier so yours must me mental

yer your right there mate specially after all that time and money gone into it lol surely a td06 on 1.8 would be more then 350 thought they went to like 500hp

so wats the power figure on high boost then mate? and that is a cracking glanza to, lot of dough spent on that aswell lol we both from rayleigh way so not that far

ha ha yer it was good because i own a gt and he knows how quick they can be just has never had the chance to race 1 because there arnt any around with your sorta power lol mine will only be 220 -230 wen finished, so r u runnin the td06 then like the spec list says? and were bouts in essex u from?

yer i will do mate he would be well up for that i reckon u would have him with that power lol yer it is wicked astra very clean and lot spent u do have the weight advantage though but his is capable of 175mph but needs to get stronger valves first lol i will have to have chat with ya 1 night once my cars bac on the road its bein done wednesday so will be out in the gt for first time in 6 weeks

i think a rematch is in order lmao as me mate in the astra turbo had a knackered gear linkage and struggled to get the gears (i am not makin excuses lol) but was well impressed with glanza and the astra is 356bhp and 410ftlb just spins up most of the time though

well another little update, the work on the exhaust was annoying me so i ended up just ordering another downpipe that fits. it turned up on monday so now thats fitted my td04 setup is now completed and she even runs spot on wen fired up, and the rad and fan i bought from ebay work the b*****Ks aswell (had to buy new rad as the one i got with the kit was leakin so while i was at it i bought a nice 12" spal fan as it is alot smaller then the standard 1). but sadly got to wait till the 9th july to get it mapped so annoyed as its been off road for like 5 weeks already lol well heres couple of pics

well little update put the td04 kit in last weekend, all lookin good just need to sort the exhaust as the downpipe doesnt line up with it( needs new flange to be welded on) then just need a remap and she should be all sorted. it was booked in for a remap last thursday but i missed out because i didnt know i needed to cut and weld the exhaust so now gotta wait till i can get booked in again few pics:

well cars booked in for mapping at engine advantages next thursday for a remap on the new td04 kit lol got to get it all fitted and runnin this weekend so i can drive it there. just hope it all goes well will post pics of the kit soon its a wepr kit to.

right thought i would just update this thread. i have just bought a td04 kit so keep an eye on this thread for some updates will get some pics of kit wen it arrives. also it shoul be on and setup in bout 2-3 weeks goin for about 220-230 bhp

well not updated in a little while so thought i would put up a few more changes, changed the autobahn mani i had for a speedvision one as the autobahn kept cracking, at the same time made a homemade brace to help take some of the strain. sprayed my rollcage white, now it stands out a lot more makes the interior look lot better: also raised the bonnet, added some black bonnet pins and a laguna splitter ( o yer and took couple of photos of how she looks now lol)

cheers marc yer it feels good mate spinnin up in second in the dry lol time to go pod though and beat my old time of 14.4 with a high 13 hopefully

well everyone bit of an update, got my car setup with my dastek unichip at engine advantages yesterday and the car made: 195bhp @ flywheel - 176 @ wheels 176lbft at 1.1 bar on ct9

right people my car is goin in to be mapped this wednesday, so will let u all know it how goes and wat the power figure is.

well bit of an update bookin my car into engine advantages tomorrow gettin it mapped at 1.1 bar on a dastek unichip, been waitin for ages lol

dont think i have seen your car about u had it long? and u ever go down lakeside on a sat night?
