Yeh bedford is all booked up, realistically it'll be weather dependent as to how well it performs.

So small update, didn't get to see the final torque figure before I cleared the screen (rushing around today with 3 cars to map) but on 1.5 bar it achieved 356bhp and last torque I saw was 325lb-ft (when it was at 344bhp) but I seem to think it was around the 330mark.

Make sure they use genuine valves. Otherwise it'll drop a valve. They like doing that on pattern ones.

It will fit.

What job?

Lol. Can't afford that!

If if was just he belt that was changed that's the problem.

Sorted the boost control table yesterday, now have 1 bar upto 75% throttle, 1.25bar at 85%, 1.5bar at WOT. Only issue is at 1.5bar it wheelspins in 4th lol!

You've got an exhaust blow somewhere IMO.

Good result!

As above. I'd put in some supertech's, but uk stock is non existent ATM!

That's where I am on Sunday. (MTEC)

I wouldn't want that head. Full of swarf etc

What tools have you used? I know someone who is a specialist fitted a set of 438's last year and got it very slightly wrong and when the Dephaser engaged it was clipping valves. But also 120psi is crap. I'd want to see 190+! If you're turning the engine with no cams and it was easy/air escaping...

Standard springs are under tension. Even new eibachs are, but not enough to warrant spring compressors if you're feeling confident

I'm not convinced. I've fitted loads of these and never had an issue with them loosing compression after turning it over for a few seconds.

It is wrong if the pulleys aren't loosened as you can't rotate the whole assembly to equalise tension.

Down on compression on 1 pot. Timed up correctly?

No. Just no. If it's a bearing, wd40 will make it worse. If it's the belt, wd40 will make it worse. Find the problem and fix it properly.

Did a small 3rd gear pull before the torque steer tried to kill me lol!

197's need the dephaser.

It won't be the belt slipping. Mine was fine blowing 10psi.

No point in binning off the dephaser on mild cams IMO.

Rstuning, or both @MicKPM and @Andyrg@ ClioTurbo are doing belts with dephasers for around the £500 mark for a bit of travelling.

I'm mapping in westbury at the end of the month on the rollers, so I may be able to squeeze yours on at the end of the day.

Erm, yeh. It was running 32psi when I took it out last night (forgot to select the boost control port on the ecu DOH!) at which point it was going what ever direction it wanted (using 2 lanes of the dual carriageway) and I was along for the ride. But that was with the tracking out etc so it was...

So better update this... Excuse the boost controller wiring I hadn't done at that point. Boost, AFR and EGT Diff Manifold and downpipe Custom shafts

I'm in glastonbury, can do it for you.

Cambelt kit, dephaser, aux kit, oil and filter, crank bolt, and dephaser seal kit is £610 all in. Water pump is +£100, including new coolant. All genuine parts.

I'm based over in glastonbury
