now take that huge air filter and make it so it can draw fresh cool air (from beside the intercooler) and your car will run even better/faster!!!!


Great job so far mate... excited to see the whole thing completed running well etc...

Hi sorry for the delay in updates

The RA 2 stroke is working very well, the old tank I made did around 400 miles before I had to top up this was around 500ml

I've now had to make a bigger tank as I have fitted a new upper and lower 13b-RE manifold, the new tank holds 1 ltr :)

As for her running she feels great at the moment I'm running 6psi at the moment, when I'm back from Italy next week I'm going to start doing some more boost logs and getting that boost up :)

Anyway here's what I've been doing most would of seen at rotor stock

Cold intake ( I hope to be mounting the pee turbo water kit in this pipe)

Also I've now sold on the T04R and ordered myself a BWS366 turbo on a 0.91a/r

I'm also looking at getting

725 Id injectors
And
2000 Id injectors

Or should I go

Id1000cc

And

Id2000cc

???

Update time

I've now sold my T04R and gone with the Borg Warner S300sx Aka the S366 , this was the turbo I was really after before I went single last year.

WOW she's a bigone lucky for me the turbo fitted my TGS manifold so I don't have to re-make that.

Here are a few test fit photos

It was clear I would have to move my Intercooler to the o/s a little and it would need to come closer to the front panel.

Well this made me move the rest of the wiring in the bay out and tucked so now there isn't a single body loom wire in the bay :)

Excellent fabrication and do everything style.

If ever you need a hand or want someone to bounce ideas off feel free to pm me.

Best Regards

Peter

p.s. sorry if I forgot you Craig? I get jizzillions of e-mails and contact form kuuunts all over the world and I see I recommend you find this site, I just can't remember talking to you over e-mail? maybe when I was on fduk? anyway.......... def keep in touch dude, you have some abilities! and its sick as fuck to see more kunnnnts like you building stuff like this.

Topgear 12-20-2012 05:50 AM

Cheers peter I've followed your build for a long time now and what you have done is amazing. My wife is moving out to Perth in jan to see it we can make a living out there. When I was there in jan the heat was crazy.

If you still have your link ecu in a few months I might get her to buy for me :)

Next on the list is a bigger intercooler, pre tubs water and lots of boost ;)

One day I might get chance to come over an pay you a visit

My ID2000 injectors came just after newyear I'm a happy chappy

http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...F3D768E3B7.jpg

The Cosmo lim and upper was removed as I wanted to re pant them black the red was just to much for me

While it was off I port matched the plenum block to the upper and RW throttle body and also have it all a good polish :)

http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...3B1AF5BA81.jpg
