wouldnt worry Bev, Fred doesnt know his arse from his left ear lobe. ;)

oliver nicols? If you speak to him again can you tell him to call/email me, his old email address doesnt work since he changed job and he's doesnt pop up on the french forum. Thanks.

its been sold!

thats what i mean, i'm saying its not a good gain and i'm was wondering if something was out of alignment. But if everything is spot on and your fine then so am i. Did ali go to falkland aswell, he has the same sort of mods doesnt he, be good to compare.

thought it would be the plenum join you were talking about lol.

how do you mark it for a head you've never seen?

you have to look down the manifold to see the bottom edge, then through the injector bosses to see the top and side edges. It'll make or break it since 20 thou is half a mm.

Did you align the manifold properly as 1bhp is a joke. i leave a 20 thou area around the manfiold dimentions that allow a minute stepdown, but there is still more freeplay in the fitting of the manifold and if its fitted incorrectly then the flow will 'see' an oncomming step, which will...

yup, in some cases running asmuch water as they are fuel.

lol. why is the YB crap? Crap might be an overstatement, but i'll take plenty of other engines before the YB. As edde said, boost can indeed do wonderful things.....just look at what it does to the 20v vag unit, which in NA trim would be, and is, terrible. But one thing explains...

why a cosworth? THe YB is crap.

they have space so that setups can be cheap and easy. I've never been remotely impressed with the offerings on saxos. And the ctr's jackson setups come from massively backed US based companies who dont have to pay what we do to design and make what is required.

spent many an hour going over the best route for such a setup, but costs for a well placed, designed, driven and non structurally intrusive setup is expensive, and even if the option was there, nobody would go for it i dont think.

Chirst those posts are hard to read.

not possible that the belts tension could of done it. But an overtight belt can damage/break the tensioner leading to piston valve contact.

you fix prescotts jags?

you work for the mod or something?

i have dail and clicker and beam type wrenches, dont ask me why, i collect crap lol. Dails rock, but they are expensive for good uns.

no, but i've read those practical mechanics and car mech mags before.......they read the manual.......lol. second hand wrenches from a good brand might be a good buy, but you've no idea on calibration. Cheap wrenches of the spring (clicker) type are the least accurate. If you want cheap...

And they had a torque calibrator to test it?

how accurate do you want/need to be?

And at an average cot of £40 for 18lbs, which will last you about.......a days worth of fun.......So 3k would = 75 days worth of fun. Not to mention it would not be wise to run N20 constantly, you would need ignition map modifications to run on high amounts of gas, which then leaves you with...

Whats cheaper than throttle bodies to 210bhp?

hhahahaha, omg i'm crying! I had to read it out loud! HAHAHAHA....

I think thats what "I'd love to see that over here..." means........................lol

then its free to watch the results lol. or undo half of the stitching on their flip flops.

i'll pay dubai182 to go and loosen the door hinges.

like i said, i have plenty of temp sensors sitting here.

should of got a DP engineering kit.

i'm a right bellend round these parts..........i leave work sometimes at 2am so its all quiet and the weather helps with not reducing tyres to trash in a few minutes. I held up the entire asda artic convoy by lapping the roundabout comming off the M'way for ages hahahahaha.....they didnt...
