^^^^ agreed

My cars been at Tuning Developments for 3 months and it broke 2 months before i could take it there :-(

Thats why we have forged 5E's in the making Taggy boy ;-)

Tuning developments do a forged stage 3 motor mate which consists of cams and cruise valve springs and other various things, thats what i have gone for and i would like to achieve 400bhp at some stage. Im not sure if they actually carry out machining of the head though they just upgrade parts in the head for better performance

The bottom end just went in my 5E too mate :/ if i was you id save your cash and send it straight to Tuning Developments thats what ive done, they will even do you a warranty and run it in properly for you so if anything was to happen you could take it straight back

Haha, id have stopped mate lmao

Exact reason why i am wanting to do it mate :-) have you converted it yet? How do you find it?

There getting quite popular in our area now mate, lately I've seen about 5 glanzas no joke! Just a shame that the people that own them dont really seem to appreciate them and just constantly rag them about

Be interesting to see what power you make mate, i also have a 5E which is being forged as we speak and im running a TD05 18G which will also be getting mapped in March :-) what power are you hoping for and how much boost you going to run?

Deffo going to see about doing this over winter, I've spent a fortune now so no point stopping lol plus id never sell the starlet even if it was stuck in my garage, would lose waaay too much money to even consider it lol

Yeah i see what you mean pal, for instance if i was to set my boost on the avcr correctly in each gear and a rainy day appeared these boost levels would be useless therefore id have to use my right foot sensibly as you quite rightly mentioned

Hmmmmmm :/ ok well thanks mate, and Amjad dont tempt me lol im gonna see how i get on now when i get her back, no doubt at first il crap my pants but by the end of the year i may think its pretty rubbish not being able to run full boost in 1st, 2nd and 3rd and i manna crack 400bhp :-)

5-6 times a week, eat every four hours if not i have a reflex mass gainer as it contains shit loads of carbs and protein, also have a fast acting carb drink post workout with a whey protein :-)

Think its something i may look into for over winter then, not gonna be cheap to do it tho lol

Il have to look into getting an anti-lift kit then mate :-) even if it doesnt help il do it for peice of mind lol well il set the boost in every gear through my AVCR and with a lil few trials i should be able to set the right amount of boost before she starts lighting the wheels up lol so bord without it though, its making me want a dc2 :/ im sure as soon as i get it back il be loving it, 4 months without boost is killing me though!!

Well i didnt before and i was running a 5E ct9 hybrid at 1.3 bar and it would spin in third on a moist day lol so I've bought a c52 box and TRD diff now so we will see how that gets on with a 5E TD05 18G at 1.4 bar, plus head work and camms :-) getting exited now as you can probably tell lol

Ok mate niceone, im gonna see how i get on with it when i get it back but the way i keep looking at it is i can have as much power as i want if i cant get it down though its gonna be useless so might be worth getting a 95 and purchasing an inlet and bigger exhaust :-) i havent had boost for over 4 months now itl probably frighten the shit out of me when i get it back anyway lol

I wish mate........ Engine hasent even been assembled yet, I've had so many setbacks its unreal lol now im waiting for undersize bearings before the engine can be assembled and run in, on the upside my cams have arrived :-)

You really are desperate to shift this stuff aint you mate lmao

Ohright :/ well thanks for that comment mate hopefully someone can confirm that, because if i was to go through all that effort id be looking at running about 400bhp lol

Easy peasy lmao if you day so Ryan boy!! ok well im going to enjoy the glanza all summer now then may see about getting an ep95 next winter when the glanza will be off the road anyway, i just got a feeling im gonna be pissed off with spending all this money for constant wheelspin no traction lol

Basically my car is due back from tuning developments in the next month and it should be running about 350bhp, i was considering buying an inlet mani and 3" exhaust too but surely at 350bhp its just gonna light up both front wheels in most gears so im not even going to be able to run full boost until like fourth gear? Would it be possible to 4 wheel drive my ep91 or do i have to buy a ep95 and transfer my engine across and get it looking sexy? Surely this is gonna be very expensive as im no mechanic and it probably take it back to tuning developments for all work to be carried out. I havent go

Its a tuning developments now mate, hoping to have it back next month, il upload some vids when shes back :-D but yeah your best bet is a garret turbo mate theyr quality, id deffo get one if my build wasnt coming to as much as it is lol

I have a 5E too mate and i couldnt afford a garret turbo kit so i went for a custom race spec head instead with a cheap TD05 18G, im only gonna run 1.4 bar and im hoping for around 330bhp, next winter im gonna get a 3" exhaust and a racetech inlet and mapped again to maybe 1.5 bar, i think i may be close to 400bhp then

Isnt Nicks a 5E?
