riko666 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Not really, 57 pages of threatening to turbo, and a page of non-proven conversion, I think its all a big fat lie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hahah, he looks like I did when I got my first taste of boost, slightly psychotic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ace-K Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 My word. My fucking word. This is just....Nah good grief that's unfuckingbelievable. Jay, you a starlet wizard. This is just insanely good and made my mouth water. I'm sure Phil is just nah speechless isn't even the right way of putting it but my god what a job. Glad to see it went unhitched and is running well. All the best with the new turbo and the very VERY best of driving Phil! Project BadgerSport Version 2... I salute you.

dEF Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Great pics !Good to hear that she's back on wheels waaaay more powerfull Any dyno graph? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 thanks lads!no dyno yet no, i'm sure that wont be far off tho!spent the day fiddling really, as i'm kinda housebound today, dont ask.got her washed, filled in the stone chips and where the bonnet has been battering paint of the bumper. i also used an obscence number of blue cable ties to tidy up cables that didnt really need cable tied! pedals refitted, interior hoovered, braces polished, sound system reset, earthing kit refitted, and right now mark and I are trying to fabricate a bracket from an exhaust hanger to fit the catch can.Booked into Powerflow for friday morning to get the exhaust hung properly, and the conversion is now declared and legally covered, all of £18 thank u so very very VERY much Adrian Flux! legends, exhaust and FMIC all declared, engine is basicaly standard but for a panel filter and magnecor leads, so all good.one bad point - it would appear that, where Cusco EP82 BMCSs fit UK N/a bays, they do not fit the EP91 FTE configuration. pure wanker, i mean, have u SEEN how expensive they are these days! pretty pissed as it was a gift, BUT it will go into Mark's GT after a fresh lick of paint!Phil.

Nanglebadger Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 thanks lads!! mucho appreciatedo!!!also, thanks for the pics jay! she really needs some Alan D treatment.took her a blast to collect my sis earlier, all behaving as it should, no boost pipes popping off, starting to get the feel of it now, and i can feel what you said Jay about the boost tailing off, weejohn can sort that!Catch can is in, tomorrow we will plumb it in. Mark has also rewired the start button to allow the use of the Glanza cup holders as before it was pushing the wires from the start button when it was pushed in.Also, redone the Jay's garage decals and the 'Y's on each side were very unhappy at life! and, Nick Jones, you owe me money Mr!!! I have also fitted a Tuning Developments decal in a rather subtle place that should look ubes once i peel the top cover off it tomorrow, tryin to let the glue take good and proper!also...need a pod for that MASSIVE boost gauge, as well as a bulb for it!!! links, suggestions, offers all welcome for those please folk!!! i need my boost gauge sited and lit!Phi.
