  1. We'll no one guessed correctly but there was Banbury Glanza ar 427 haha !

    The car was finished @2.3bar 428bhp BUT we lifted the head clean off the block, so she wasn't pushed anymore for now, the head is coming off to give the head a skim and new head gasket to be fitted and then pushed even more !

    She is having a big problem with grip, spinning up on the dyno in 4th gear !!!!

    I will post the dyno graph once Ricky sends it over but Hello UK NO.1 :D

  2. Well small update is well over due, had a few small issues this last couple of weeks but nothing that wasn't easily sorted !

    The major issue was the 38mm tail wastegate not being able to handle 2+bar of boost and so it's was creeping about 8-10psi !!

    so the old collector was cut off and a new 46mm diamter one was welded in place then a turbo smart 44mm wastegate was bolted on along with a new screamer pipe sorting the issue out for good.

    The car has Been mapped so far to 2.15bar and has produced not a bad result, the rest of the mapping with be done tomorrow once a small boost leak has been sorted.

    Another note is I picked up a gt lsd box with a cusco diff so should help with a little bit of grip

  3. agreed guy is such a guru legend, love him :)

    bet though if you were staring at 6months to break and sell your car in parts and undo all the work you've done and answer 10billion messages from folk wanting you turbo for half the advertised price?

    then you'd be right to consider any offer thats half reasonable, id say 8k in your hand zero hassle would be sorely tempting :) (obviously bearing in mind you would have to come to a point where you want rid)

    Honestly I wouldn't even entertain the thought of 8k for mine but id imagine plenty of people would/have

  4. I havent ever been in one but they look so savage its just drawing me to them lol, I bet running costs shaft you in the ass though so may not be a good investment haha!

    Ive seen lots of evidence to suggest she will soon be done bud?? you got a bit of spare cash then?? haha.............i need a loan......... :thumbsup::p

    Yes dude she is nearly done, should have had her final MAP yesterday but Ricky got held up so I've been told she's going on the dyno Monday morning

    I HAD spare cash until I bought a starlet haha, I work away a lot so don't get much time to spend so when I'm home I like to live life on the higher side shall we say lol

  5. Yeah buddy!!!

    Awesome, cant wait to see some figures on this!

    Ohhhhhhhhh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit! Haha this is going to be an insane car

    Should in theory make more power seeing as its on a larger windmill than socks' car!

    How big is that front mount! Lol

    Going to be an impressive car dude, look forward to the results!

    My car wasn't built to break a record. Was built to be driveable. Just so happens it held records along the way.

    It made any more power yet azz? Looking forward to seeing what it makes bud! :)

    Thanks for all the kind words gents, means a lot coming from the ukso family

  6. I dont im afraid dude, i know zisco ones where developed from cruise iirc. You still find cruise for sale now and then but they are crazy priced tbh. Tmd used to stock em so some one will have em on the shelf somewhere.

    I've got them in my engine but trying to find out how tougher they are is proving a little challengeing !

  7. You shouldnt realy need to do anythingbto them tbh. Can always talk to zisco another trader here they buil crazy hp drag sleds so they will shine more light on head specs if you need it. Im aiming at 300-350hp with oem retainers with cruise valve springs and will be uping the rpm to 8500 maybe more.

    Shorty do you still have the specs of the cruise spring's ? What strength they are ? Anything will be more than I have now
