Well i picked up my car from bolton on friday! The journey to get the car where it is today has been filled with ups and downs from the very start, so the idea of giving the car to ste @SC auto's to turbo was to make it reliable again and make it useable. No dash lights, error messages...
As above, it will read up to 110 degrees on my scan gauge for coolant temp, the needle will go over half way and a warning message will come on. The fan doesnt appear to be doing anything, is this the thermostat? This was at cadwell i should stress not road driving. On the road normal driving it...
Ive just had a new fuel system inc swirlpot and regulator fitted, and a 95mm pully for the supercharger resulting in 360bhp and 300lbft. Its f**kin rapid!! Unbelievable how fast this thing is! Ive added a video, it was running 340 at the time, needed a few tweeks to the fueling and was a proper...
I was at bedford om saturday with the guys from 197.net, was a really good day! And i had sunday at cadwell park for the day, was amazing, couldnt of asked for better weather!! Ive just had all the valves and springs replaced, so was a good opportunity to bed it in ;)
Enjoy
Finally got round to doing this, had them for over 6 months and decided to take the charged beast to work and do it in the warehouse. I think they look awesome!! :)
Just picked up the car from Jam-sport after having a fully forged engine build including schrick cams and LSD fitted. Figures are 326bhp and 280 torque revving to 7.8k! This thing is savage, relentless acceleration! It Fookin screams its tits off, absolutely unreal from 260 before (which was...
I'm looking at getting some 8 pots on my 197, but was wondering if my 4 pots will fit the 182 with 2118's on? Has anyone done this? Much if any modification involved at all?
:)
Thought id bore you all with some more pictures, cleaned both the R27 and 182 today, also a few shots a took at my PFC mag shoot last saturday :)
Enjoy!
Here is a quick speedo vid, not the best but will give u an idea.
It runs amazing, so fast!!! I love the torque, relentless up hill!! Such a fantastic car to drive!!
After looking at some fiesta graphs, one running 260 ish like me only produces just under 200 lb ft, where as i get 250!! Shows...
Here is my supercharged R27, had it back since the weekend, its epic!! 260bp and 250 ft/lbs!!! So fast, relentless acceleration!!! Here is some pics of it and my 182.
Leave the comments on the stickers, i had 57876256378172 sheep comments on my last thread. I get the idea but tough lol...
I did a track day in my 182 yesterday at cadwell park and noticed on the way home the exhaust was making a loud whistle type sound. It sounds like a standard 182 noise but only much louder? Belts are fine, oil is fine and no loss in power. Sounds like its coming from the front of it as well?! I...
Not quite finished yet, a few touches to sort out, but its close!! Enjoy!! No power figures yet, when its finished ill post all the details etc up.

A few shots from trax and some other recent shots. The project isnt quite finished yet, needs an ecu but other than that i can take it to 5/5.5k fine. The sound is amazing!!! I know some wont like the stickers but i dont care, everyone ive met loves them in the flesh. Will be forged running...

Since early this year my dash has lit up like a christmas tree, i have no traction control or abs and reads 'brake fault'. Sometimes its on and off intermittently which is weird? Not really sure what it is, maybe dirt on the abs sensor from all the snow? Brake switch? It has been fault code read...
Lowered 50mm at the front and 45mm at the rear! Set very stiff and handles on rails!! I love it, best mod for these!! No need for spacers as i think the stance looks mint!!

My friend has a 52 reg 1.2 extreme and the horn is buggered, sometimes when she goes over large pot holes the horn randomly goes off but dosnt work when you push it on the steering wheel. Has anyone had the same problem, any advice would be much appreciated. Or a way to disconnect it from under...
Havn't posted anything on my car in ages and haven't managed to give it a good clean for ages as the weather has been soooo bad. So saturday a washed with 2b method, AG tar remover, washed, clayed, washed, Dodo juice lime primed then dodo juice bananarama wax, left to cure for an hour then spent...
Just got a new exhaust for the R27! I went for powerflow in aylesbury, im pretty sure its the first on a 197! I love it, this is how it should of sounded standard. Really subtle and sporty but when you gun it, it really sounds amazing! Low down feels MUCH better, and it just pings through out...
