Home brew almost sheep boost bus build ect

[Jamie86]

I'm no electrical expert but think you might have issues charging your battery from that

 

[John Gordon]

yeah, looks fucked. I'll take it off your hands!

 

[marinemackay2003]

£2000 and postage and its yours

 

[tom172cup]

Aha dont suppose you could measure the pulley for me please?

 

[marinemackay2003]

80mm tom

 

[tom172cup]

80 mm tom

Is that the standard size they come with?

 

[marinemackay2003]

all i said to k tec was what i intended to do power wise and they ordered it for me

so i presume so, however they go from 70 - 110mm

 

[tom172cup]

Im going to over speed mine i think it only dose the occasional meet and track stuff. cheers btw

 

[mentalmackay]

BOOOOOOOOSSSTTTT!!!

now build this wee monster!

 

[marinemackay2003]

no worries, still after more power even with the nos?

 

[TimR26]

This will be a weapon

Tom will never be happy, always wanting more power lol

 

[marinemackay2003]

hope so Tim, just need to get a few more bits and a bit of machine work done

drop it in

 

[Bluebeard]

This project makes gives me a dewy tip.

 

[marinemackay2003]

gives me a sore wallet tbh

pistons valves and supercharger = £ empty

 

[Bluebeard]

I don't even want to know what its costing you!! lol!

 

[marinemackay2003]

Its not all bad, cost me a trip to afghan = 6 months saving and a year or 2 tax returns

will do a brake down summary when complete .........:dead:

 

[domsclio182]

I don't think you can change the pulley size when using the supercharger on a f4r.

I fitted the supercharger kit to mine last week so if you have any questions on fitting the kit just pm me and I should be able to help.

Are you fitting a meg key way pulley?

 

[marinemackay2003]

should be able to, is it not just a case of getting a slightly longer belt to fit ?

meg key way pulley is essential really

there seems to be a lot of boosted cars floating about now

 

[Bobby.]

Really good thread this, well done chap. I look forward to this break down of prices and the end results

 

[marinemackay2003]

thanks

tbh even though it will be wallet aching to add it all up, will be quite interesting to see exactly what i spent

have a rough estimate but forget bits and bobs here and there

no doubt it will be .ooooofft could have bought this or that ect..... still a clio ...yawn

but at least i wont be selling it in a few months as the trend seems to be with boosted clios

 

[domsclio182]

Spoke to Andy at Ktec last week about changing the pulley size and he said you can't.

Having a meg pulley fitted to mine at the moment, thought I wouldn't need one due to only being low boost but my car made a lot of torque so had to have one to prevent belt slip.

When are you hoping to have yours running?

 

[marinemackay2003]

ah was sure i seen someone with a 85 mm pulley on one

not to sure on when i will get time really as i am on a course at work for 3 months so time is very limited

however before january would be nice and a realistic goal atm

just looking at getting the manifolds all ceramic coated atm

 

[ben_r1]

Great effort, I luved this car in PFC and was desperate to win it lol, congrats.

You've certainly changed your mind a few times on the direction, personally I couldnt have said no to a set of shiny ITBs sitting in front of me. It's not all about power figures, ITBs bring an engine to life and the response, noise and usable power is such a joy to drive, on track even more so! But a superchargers not bad either.

Used to be in the army aswell, dunno how you afford all this on those shocking wages lol, are you REME?

 

[marinemackay2003]

was well made up when i won it

not so much when cambelt went

im a Royal Marines Commando .....REME = GTFO

[video=youtube_share;LPK62MHaoNk]http://youtu.be/LPK62MHaoNk[/video]


Just done a bit of saving whilst in afghan thats all

 

[marinemackay2003]

Blue wheels are no more, fitted my pro race 2 wheels today

think they look ok for now

turning in to a wheel *****

 

[Chip-mk1]

Im sure you can change the pulley and just make up your own adjustable idler or something if the kit doesnt have the right one, especially as you can just get Dewis to do you one no doubt, lol

 

[marinemackay2003]

im fine with what i have tbh chip, it was tom i think was after changing pulleys

however may need a manifold making so may give him a call

 

[tom172cup]

no worries, still after more power even with the nos?

Yeah want to see what the little clio can do. If i can get 400 with nitrous I may stop there :quiet:
The pulleys can be changed its just a case of fitting the right one and finding the right belt to go with it

 

[marinemackay2003]

Thought about a different intake manifold ? Jenvey turbo ect ?

Think I'm going to have a DIY at one

 

[tom172cup]

Was going to bin the rotrex for a garret gt30r over the winter. but thats looking at about 2k just for parts. I did think about the Jenvey but nitrous was the easiest option really up to 150hp for 800 notes

 

[marinemackay2003]

Yeah suppose it makes sense cost wise

 

[domsclio182]

Is the jenvy one like a short runner manifold then.

 

[tom172cup]

Is the jenvy one like a short runner manifold then.

same one Ktec have on there 182 turbo

 

[marinemackay2003]

Costly though I'm looking at making a megane one fit

 

[tom172cup]

Costly though I'm looking at making a megane one fit

what ball park figures you looking at?

 

[marinemackay2003]

Hopefully 320 ish anything over 300 will be more than enough though

 

[tom172cup]

same as mine then fooking rapid

 

[marinemackay2003]

Can't wait for first smash down our airfield lol

 

[marinemackay2003]

[Gray]
