[t5 pete]

Wow.I missed an interesting built here.Great power mate,k24 spool up is great and transforms a car without the need of mbc to pull at low revs.Nice work.

just a little update:

Jan 23rd i got the call i didnt want to hear lol, Rick phoned and told me he had been playing some more with my car but had to change some parts, MAF sensor, spark plugs, Turbo control valve and air filter. The reason for the air filter was because it was restricting air slow!!!!!!!!! Fekkin pile of ££££e BSR crap.

Anyway he was just doing the final few runs and had got near as damn it 360whp or approx 420bhp, not bad for a lowly 2.5T lol, but then on the second to last run it spun a crank shell so is now making a nice knocking sound from the bottom end.

These things happen lol, so i was straight onto Tim Williams who is in the process of finding me either a S60R/V70R 2.5 engine or a 2.4T5 engine and then going from there, so i awaite news from Tim. Fortunatly he can build the engine for me without having the car there, there will be a few more mods added at the same time but they will be revealed later, lets just say it will be able to put the power down and the gearbox and clutch will be well upto the job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well another little update, called into AET today and Rick has a couple of well deserved days off, so had a look at what extra's had been fitted, first off a massive 86mm MAF sensor (new) apparently capable of flowing enough air for well over 500bhp as a result combined with Graeme Welch's 3" MAF to turbo pipe is now flowing a massive 22% more air over standard, secondly the ITG air filter is about 3 times the size if the crappy BSR unit also capable of well over 500bhp.

Looking forward to getting my 'R' engine built up and fitted by Mr Tim Williams to see exactly what it will produce.

So guys watch this space lol

The plan was always to have an engine built anyway so its just bought plans forward really, also its completly my fault as i forgot to move and upgrade the oil cooler. I did tell Rick to take it to the max without blowing it up lol, well he didnt blow it up!!!!!!!

Oh nice figs mate got any grath of that!

Sounds good this build .you will have to bring it to the strip when finished .
