T. Turbo is back

[leeroybrown]

Epic! will be good to have a butchers at this at the FCS

Am sure he is only from Sunderland Jimbo, suprised you aint seen it.

 

[d4nmc]

It lives around here somewhere, is this the one with the "Haswell" plate?

 

[leeroybrown]

Thats the one Dan, seen Steve a few times on the road, could see his naughty intercooler on the front

Saw it at Lindisfarm roundabout filling up first time, tried to keep up on the way out in the Ibiza Cupra (ko4s 240bhp) back when he had less than 300bhp and got obliterated... Then tried to keep up along a dual carriageway in the 172 Cup, which was even more funny!

 

[Chris205]

It's been a long time coming but it will certainly push the boundaries of Clio tuning

 

[T.Trophy]

Yeah its taken a lot longer than it should of. It's been at the fabricators since May last year and for one reason or another it was only started last week anyway at least during that time I had a chance to change/upgrade a few things.

It will be something quite unique when its done, but all wrapped up in a toatlly standard looking Trophy shell :evil:

 

[ND04]

Bet it's unique spoke to andy last week he said they had'nt started it that's bad crack after how long they've had it.

 

[chriscummins7]

Breathtaking mate, those who dare win and all that! Can't wait for the update.

 

[Tommy_C]

Great little read, would love to see this go some time

 

[T.Trophy]

Just picked my car up from the fabricators today, it's now at BTM ready for the big build to commence on Monday

 

[Russ_16v]

Lol does it need more power?!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Is this the one heading for 5-600bhp?

 

[Fred@BTM]

^maybe not that much, but jesus christ this thing is cool!

 

[T.Trophy]

It'll easily hit 500bhp maybe as much as 530, but if I want 600 I'll need to move upto something like a gtx35. I'm not sure what my 870cc injectors are good for so they might need changing as well. The rest of the set up is future proof

 

[SharkyUK]

*grin* Awesome!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

How long before its ready?

Road legal?

 

[George182]

That sounds brilliant! And more than a little bit mental ha ha

 

[Fred@BTM]

Road legal?

Looks like a stock Trophy LOL!

 

[Owen:s]

Any p**n pics then lad

 

[Austin-182]

Nice to hear this is still going ahead as always planned mate.

 

[Fred@BTM]

I took a pic earlier, but i've had to edit it

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Why the big secret?

 

[Sam@NP]

Nice desk fan but where is the turbo?

 

[Fred@BTM]

because "someone" likes nicking ideas and calling it their idea and that's not cricket (plus its not ready yet!)

 

[Wayne-G]

Great update! Need to hear/see this beast in the flesh, one word.. Weapon.

 

[-Sparky-]

SUBSCRIBED!!!

[R-Sport.]

Finally going to see the road again

 

[scotty2hotty81]

[tom172cup]

Seems a very impressive build. what are your plans for the car racing/fast road? what gearbox are you running?
may need to pm you regarding components etc as im wanting that sort of power and more for drag racing

 

[Craig.]

Think steves still using the 182 box tom, but he has tried a dci80 box.

 

[tom172cup]

[sbridgey]

[Fred@BTM]

Lol. I like that idea. Consultation fee

 

[Craigie-B]

If your using an r26 box, did you make an adapter to fit it to the 172 f4r or are you running the later r26 f4r?

Cheers

 

[chriscummins7]
