Looking very sweet:cool How\'s the home made single turbo set up running? Am very interested and impressed with what you\'ve done:)

its running really well,  i have had a few teething problems with melting anything within 10 inches of the turbo, despite having loads of heat shielding.  Melted the bonnet release cable yesterday,  that makes life interesting!  its only running 10 psi at the mo as i seem to have problem with GReddy Profec A, i think the solanoid is knackered.  Its much quicker than before and it was running 12 psi on the twins. Its still got a long way to go on the tuning as it is tuned very conservativly at the moment.  will try and get to santa pod next weekend, even though it is ford (yuk) day, there is still a run what you brung day, p*ss of a few cossies with a bit of luck and a lot of traction.

Good good, double good:bandit Have you got a front mount on it? If so is it a proper jap spec one or did you make that up aswell? If i were doing it i\'d buy a universal forge frontmount cooler for about 200nicker, maybe even a 2nd hand cossie 4wd or a frontera TD all alloy cooler and make my own pipes up.

Anyway best of luck with it and let me know your progress:)

Cheers, Paul

is there a rain catch underneath the bonnet?

[antnicuk]

the only rain catcher i have is the engine.....   which makes keeping the engine clean a little difficult.

The intercooler is custom made, i took two Mazda Cosmo (20B) intercoolers, cut opposite end tanks off and tig welded them together, so its hugh!!!  I also fitted a bigger rad and after market fans. The Cosmo intercooler is 4" thick. Also it is the only core i have seen that has little fins running through the air passages for extra cooling.

It is front mounted with custom ali fairing in the mouth to force all the air through the intercooler. Although this makes the air going through the rad a little warmer, the bigger rad and fans together with the electric water pump keeps the temp at around 75 - 80.

The air temps are around 25 sso its working ok, but better still it was cheap.

Nice heat shielding.. that\'ll keep it from getting heat soak:), custom work also? battery relocated to the boot?

Is that another 7 i spy in the garage

[antnicuk]

no, thats my kit car, Lotus7 styleee..... doesnt get used very often,  i have a 12a turbo engine and gearbox to go in it when i get time. Its 1600 ford and is painfully slow, but it passed the sva which it wouldnt with the rotary in it.

All heat shields are home made and the battery is in a home made ali box in the boot. With all the extra electrical parts i have on the car i wanted a BIG battery which i wouldnt be able to fit in the engine bay.

Very impressive. How are your FPR\'s working? Have you got the first one between the primary and the secondary rails, and the second one after the secondary rail? What size turbo are you running?

i put a second fuel pump in the tank, plumbed in two fuel returns, used the stock pump to run the primary\'s with their own FPreg, then connected the second pump to the original return, to run the secondary\'s with a seperate fpreg, the two rails are completely seperate. That way i can adjust the fuel pressure on each rail.
