Re: Road/Track 172 Good result! Should be fun!

You not welding the bush sleeves then?

Pump produces flow rather than pressure. Sounds like your pump internals are worn or the same in the rack creating too much clearance. I would go OE replacement.

Just the stat.

Keep me posted though, I'm loving it! Love a good turbo thread that it is done a bit different for the generic. Fingers crossed for sat. Bet I'll want a screamer pipe after seeing your vid. Lol

Tbh mate, surprised there is not a lot more replies to this one as there is a lot of work in what you're doing and a lot of credit should be given to you for it. I am thinking about making a tubular manifold but only once I get the thing running and sort out any snags. Think I'll still try and...

LOL, 189bhp at best is my guess. A RR printout would be good that's not done on MS paint!

Good work mate, love the layout! Screamer pipe might melt the scuttle panel though.

Looks a bad one, glad you're not too badly hurt. Broken driveshaft? Bloody hell!

Is the car dead? :S

Got a genuine used one in the garage if you're interested.

I would think so.

Guess there is a lot of adjustments to be made once fitted. How long did it take to fit? Do you think with the extra leverage you will be able to achieve on the stick, it would cause any gearbox issues?

With all this talk of rattles and bangs, are they worth it??

Too true mate! :D

Not sure yet either. I've got a laminova oil cooler so might use that with some bosses or use the tee for the OE oil pressure sensor.

Where are you taking you oil temp and pressure readings from?

Good work mate, enjoyed reading that. Should be mint when done.

I want one so if anyone's selling ;)

Most, if not all the conversion could be swapped into another car if you get a prang so the car is not the expensive part, the turbo kit is. Get it on track, you know you want to. (and get some tuition to avoid the prangs!)

She loves her Cupra for the 1 mile a day drive she does. lol I take it now and then and love some bits of it but as a sporty drive, it's just to grown up. Power delivery is too smooth for a turbo and suspension is too soft. The P1 will be my baby for many years and like it too much to use it...

Only on track I may add! Not finished yet. I was working on both for a while when I had a chance but want back on track so feel the clio needs all my attention when I get a chance. Got the Audi for the road so it does a job, just doesn't excite me at all.

I'll not feel the lag cause I'll be bouncing of the limiter all the time! :race: Yours will be very rapid. My P1 had just under 300hp and feels very quick on boost so a clio that weighs 200kg less will feel even quicker.

Hopefully without breaking too much. Lol

Looking for approx 350 but we'll see how goes it.

Cant wait either but not holding my breath. Lol I know mate but remember you said you were bored. ;) Polishing would be good actually, I'll give it a bash. Cheers mate, hopefully does the job.

Here you go mate! Where I had to cut the old runners and flange off. Will be tidied up and then painted. Catch you soon. ;)

:headno: Why bother asking the question if he has all the answers.

Not sure the mrs would appreciate you calling her that. :p

Jesus, fair play mate!
