In a moment of madness (i think I may have taken 1 too many blows to the head at kickboxing this week....) I let Tim at RX motors loose with an open mandate to build me a powerful engine. :burnout

His last joyfull words were: \'\'no expense spared then!\'\'  
He hung up before I could reply.

I\'m getting scared now........I may have to sell the flat & live in the car when it comes back

Oh yeah - we now know I was properly done by that Moss fella that sold me the car.  He said he\'d put new tips in but Tim reckons its never been rebuilt hence why it died: natural causes, old age.

Thanks again to the cowboy that sold it to me....
Now with added boost!  :burnout

jeez mate sounds like a life changing experience. :D  Awesome to know that there are some guys here in the uk doing some fun and fast stuff to 12a\'s. They are so underated. I wish you all the luck. Any firm idea on set up? injection etc...?
   cheers, michael.

Don Pamponi

Yes & no - its hard to get a serious answer out of Tim when he\'s in an ecentric comedy type mood.

So far all I know is: high boost 12a turbo, EFI, Microtech thingamy, 3" all the way loud zorst, BOV.

Maybe\'s are: porting, Water inj/intercooler & goodness only know\'s what else.

I think he\'s feeling creative.....:rolleyes:

Buddy, seems kinda scary yet somehow exciting at the same time. Kinda like chicks.
 Any sort of time frame for the finished article?

Don Pamponi

Try getting that information out of Tim!!

Tim was at Geffs the other night, had his new housings with him for the purple drag car. Some very aggressive porting produced with some superb workmanship. That thing should fly next year with the big turbo :)

Don, you should be very happy indeed :D

Don Pamponi

It flys already!!

However, I think you\'ll find mine is the Gentleman connoisseur\'s choice ;)

He took 3 months on my 12at,Don!:D  hehe,another 12at with a microtech,damn they\'re getting common!Mine cost £600 fitted,still haven\'t set it up properly,yet.Are you getting an LSD?I\'d imagine your back end will be extremely twitchy,i know mine is with about 200hp and new Toyo Proxes!And how about uprated brakes?i\'ve been very thankful of mine on several occasions!Suspension too,i remember the 13b-rew powered FB Tim built,it had a load of running gear from an FD in it,and it was still a total biatch!Be VERY careful when you get it back.

You paid £600 for a 12AT??!!  Fitted!!!???
Now with added boost!  :burnout

Don Pamponi

Nope, the running gear\'s completely standard.  I shall have to screw a block of wood under the gas pedal.

I may fit a line lock tho

£600 just for the microtech I think.

travellinbob

I agree with mike about the £600 just fior the microtech. What kind is it? As for brakes. If nothing else then upgrade the front one to at least turbo II spec. For your own safety.
