Phil Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Nice slippers Phil Cheers big ears they are very comfortable. Would u like this moving to the build thread section Phil?Looks awesome tho in all fairness... Lovely GT Move it as necessary man no issue. Cheers, ill get some better pictures if i ever get a decent phone the iphone4 is poop in the camera department. What boost you going to be running? Not sure, but 1.4/5/6bar to see where the power is at, will be mapped by Chris Carson so the best bit is he will probably map it on and off for a while to see what suits the turbo/complete setup best. I have the NOS kit out, and stock inlet on.not certain on compression as we didnt spec it or build it. will see where is starts to knock on normal fuel and take it from there.

Phil Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Apexi EL2 boost gauge and a HKS mount bought.

karl. Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 First time I've seen this wee car, looks well Phil. Still haven't got mine setup yet lol but I will get there, spent 7 days trying to get the fuel rail to seal properly so it better not need to come off again. What sort of setup are you running here then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What sort of setup are you running here then? Hmm good luck with the rail issue man. setup wise. 4efte forged (CP/Scat/ACL/etc) Greddy td05 14b Zisco topmounted ex.gated WEPR fmic HKS silent hipower EMS stinger standalone Greddy EBC Quaife LSD this list is far from exhaustive but ive grown bored of writing it out. leads/fpr/plugs/steering wheel/Buddyclub wheels etc all present also. lol wont make mental power, at least no surprises, but turbo is rated to 2bar so no issues there. from past experience power will depend largely on fuel (quality/inj.cc/pressure) and compression.
