Suprised it didnt suck in some of those ice cubes!!!! sitting right in front of an un filtered turbo !!
Mad eh if carlsberg did FB\'s

love it, cant think what back end they running with that set up, but the stock one would jump out and run down the road with that much power.
stunning car!!!!!!!!!!!!! and an awesome tune too.

awsome :D
ditto ice cubes comment :o
:p
You can see on the first close up of the turbo it sucking in the melted ice, and a mist when they let off the power. Crazy :D:D

Even water will kill any compressor bladed motor !!! Trouble is with water it does have a fairly good ability to have surface tension and will stay in a bubble. Water spray is fine but i have seen (and rebuilt) aircraft aero engines that have suffered water ingestion and it has destroyed a multi- million pund engine in seconds. The main problems is that it does not suck it away in mist and sprays but as a big blob and its just like a big rock going down. That ice could have destroyed that turbo.
Really may have to go 20B.......wonder if Tim has one in the RXmotores shed? :yes

Yep, all done now bar a bit of road testing & tracking adjustment.
I may actually go get next week! (I know, promises promises......)
All I got to do is choose new wheels as both the sets I had for the car (which I REALLY liked) dont fit any more. Will be trying to buy something similar(ish), dont want to turn up at the party wearing the same dresses do we?
I remember that in a 7\'s book (wrote by Matras or Long, I forgot wich) there\'s a UK garage that have made a first gen with 20B in the endo of 80\'.
I search and will post :)
Theres a few. Tim had one at the retro meet a few years ago.

There\'s another high horespower Gen 1 - DirectFreak I think it is - that\'s a 13B RE I think, and he\'s had to do a lot of work on the back end to support similar power levels. There\'s a youtube of that one somewhere.
