Quote from: A7NTYWell i drove the 12a turbo yesterday and I have to say it has almost nothing in common with the NA. OK the weber badly needs setting up as its flat as fduk on full throttle with the second choke (I havent a clue how to adjust this :cry:) it has huge low down torque, it sounds far more muffled and there is no point revving past 6000rpm. The car looks awesome.



Yes I know the feeling!!!  seems odd changing gear with a few 1000 rpm left to go to keep the power on.   atleast you have an lntercooler to help things. will be interesting to see how you get on with this setup

I see what you mean, in the other photos it looks a bit neglected, but that looks in fine fettle,  what boost pressure does it run with the intercooler and blow through setup??

not sure as the gauge isnt plumbed in, meant to be 7psi. Geffs gonna have a crack at setting it up week after next.

cool, never seen much of what lurks under the bonnet before. Any idea what sort of weber it is ? lools like a DGAS or a DCNF ?

A7NTY

Mike, no I would love to know myself, there is practically no info available on this car anywhere it seems. Its not a big carb, perhaps geff can tell us better when he sets it up.

I must admit to being rather jealous.  Thats a fine machine (I wonder if its as fast as mine?) :)

Dose it have an LSD?
Now with added boost!  :burnout

Very cool car mate!!! looks in top nick too. Would also like to know what size carb that is. I have visions of a 48mm downdraft but very interesting to see something different.
 cheers for the photos. Please keep us all up to date with how a tune up goes etc.
 cheers, michael.
