172 cup, Impreza P1
Cheers guys, will give you a shout.
Your car all ready for this years track action?
RS6+ & 40d MSport X5
Naw! LOL!
major service, belts, rocker gasket and a good inspection needed. SWR will be doing it all, though.
172 cup, Impreza P1
Cheers mate!
Im sure Andy will do you proud. I'll keep an eye on your progress! Should be rapid. :approve:
172 cup, Impreza P1
Nae luck. If SWR are doing all the work there should be no delay. Lol
Bet you're taking it all in though Wayne and keeping them both right I bet!
ooo aye every days a school day lol
172 cup, Impreza P1
Your ears burning when I was talking about about welding?
You probably will have the rs finished before this. I'll need to slow you down with some more welding! :rasp:
It will give me something to do board stupid here. Going to end up washing and polishing the R32 soon enough while waiting on the focus bits to arrive.
Get pics up of this manifold.
172 cup, Impreza P1
Ha, must be bored if you're talking about washing and polishing cars. Lol
I'll get some pics up soon. Had to chop the runners, flange and bosses off the other one. Made some new runners and got another flange water jet cut and I'll reuse the bosses. I've increased the diameter of the runners too and also increased the wall thickness and the flange thickness.
Should get everything done on it next weekend then I'll get it over to you.

Steve you still doing a screamer?
Not sure the mrs would appreciate you calling her that.
172 cup, Impreza P1
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.
Looks awesome lad, can't wait until your done
Looks pretty clever that!
172 cup, Impreza P1
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.
Whats the end goal for this power wise?
Going to be a little bit quick then!
Pfft let's hope you've got more lag than me and I might be able to keep up lol
172 cup, Impreza P1
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.
Haha you yobo, still got full interior tho so that'll hold me back a touch lol
Guessing you got the p1 sorted then?
172 cup, Impreza P1
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.
Haha p1 for on the road then lol
Your missus must love have them to stick up the drive lol swap her for the cupra and she can drive the Audi lol
But I know how you feel bought a ph1 as a daily but not the same as the ph2 lol
172 cup, Impreza P1
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 on track as I dont want the feeling in the back of my mind that I might crash and be p1ssed off. The Clio is cheaper to run on track but the way things have went probably not cheaper to get there. lol

1 mile a day pfft make her walk lol
This is the issue I have with tracking the turbo scared I bin it and f**k the car then I'd be majorly annoyed but really want to try track I'm total stuck lol
Yeah that's true, sold my rear cage last year to build it regretted that since lol

Been working away on a few things but mainly the inlet manifold. Making some parts for it when I got time. Once all the parts were made, focrs on here kindly welded it up for me and what a job he made of it too. Well pleased with the way it turned out!
Tried it in the engine bay as well and everything fits perfectly not that I had any doubt.
Boost sensor, fpr feed and dump valve feed and the hole in the bottom is for the MAP sensor.
In situ:
Cut out to clear the alternator:
Still to drill and tap a hole for the brake servo feed and then decide if I'll get it powdercoated orange or spray it Blue.
