Projects cars always do Scott, it's a constant test of character with the amount of things that need doing 1 thing after another. For me it helped to write everything down on paper so i had something to refer too all the time. It never ends, there's always something to do :D

I don't think I have any other plans so I should be able to make it

Nice meeting you too Ron, definitely a small world knowing Mart as well. He'll be down in Southend the end of June

Was nice to meet a few faces behind the forum names last night, quite a few people turned up at Tescos. As said it was a shame the seafront was busy so the parking spread out Scrooge i didn't realise you there, some really well looked after Clios there last night. Will make more of an effort to...

Cool, if it's all going to plan I could drive straight to yours then

I might take you up on that offer, I leave Runcorn about midday and takes 4-5hrs to get back. Gonna be a long day as I'm getting the 5am train up there

I'm definitely picking up the PB tomorrow, it needs a dam good wash before I think about showing up to the meet :o

From day one it's always been my intention to achieve more power whilst trying to keep costs at a sensible level. The kit itself was a good price, a couple of hundred more to complete, yes remapping the stock ECU was the next step to keep costs down. The more we progressed into the build it soon...

The reason why i took it to him, 100% trust in his work. Ive known of him for many years through RTOC and seen what he's done with his own cars let alone starting his own business and what he's done with his customer cars

If you have all the kit together, a spare complete weekend and some friends on board to help put it together, that's all it would take. It all just bolts on essentially. Such an easier way to get extra power than the turbo option, you don't have any dealings with the exhaust side of things, no...

Incey, i imagine you are more clued up on things like this than me. My limited dealings with what's going on goes like this. Supercharger running boost well in it's efficiency, stock bottom end known to take the bhp on low boost mapped correctly, fuel, ignition etc The right ingredients to run...

Out of interest what power did it go to at 10psi on yours if you were seeing 250 @6/7psi? Assuming on a completely stock bottom end? Ali the key to everything was buying the kit 2nd hand at £1450, then buying the parts to finish the kit. Everything else like service items and extras was by choice.

Very happy indeed :D I really appreciate everyone who's taken the time to read the thread and comment, really can't wait to drive it now.

If you can find a complete or near as dammit complete SC kit for a decent price then go for it. if you have a healthy engine to bolt it to, again all good. The unknown quantity is the condition of the supercharger (mileage, abused?) if you have history and paperwork, sorted. I think I'm still...

Just flicking through the paperwork at costings and prices of parts, they come into various categories and only relate to this build thread. The main part of the kit itself is from K Tec, purchased 2nd hand it was 90% complete. What came in the kit that I purchased: Rotrex supercharger with...

I'm at work at the moment but I'll take the time to make a more in depth reply this evening. Just really happy to get those figures last night. There's more to say later but for now...... I'm pretty chuffed with how its all turned out, the build and the end figures

Completely stock everything Ben

Ok, copy and pasted from the e mail Chris sent me yesterday evening I've managed 256hp and 205lb/ft. Its just peaking at 10.5psi at 7300rpm, drops to about 9-10 once it's done a couple pulls and got warm. I've put limiter at 7400rpm. It should go well :) So there we go, all the work done...

***BIG UPDATE*** I don't know why but I've not checked my e mails all day, I've literally just checked and lo and behold I have an e mail from Chris at EFi Parts sent at about 7pm Monday evening. A brief e mail stating a power and torque figure for the PB :quiet: :)

It definitely needs a wash which doesn't help the colour being filthy. I'll resist the urge to ask where it's at with the work as I've not heard anything from Chris yet. Tutuur if it's back before FCS I'll do my very best to be there
