What did you do in the garage yesterday?

[rigga]

Hang on ...there's a post I replied to now missing

[ChilliWhizz]

Yes, the mystery post thief has struck again

[pwd95]

Did my annual oil change.

[phazed]

The missing plenum base, lack of hydraulic PS pump and Pug 106 pump.

[ChilliWhizz]

Oi, those plug leads are the same colour as mine

Those thich insulator gaskets create more torque less bhp .. They are for Range Rovers .the thin one`a are better .

Finished rebuilding the P5 Engine on Saturday and dropped it back in on Sunday.

Not so Daz both are made from different materials like Tufnol not sure what the thin (SC Power) one is made of and 10mm on the intake is going to make fk all difference to torque or BHP well not so you would notice its blended versus trumpets where the difference's are

Ever thought about thermal wrapping the intercooler pipework? As it runs over the y piece it might be advantageous to try to keep the internal passing air cooler.

The temperature differential of in/out of the intercooler is huge so any tiny extra heat that goes into it from the exhaust I think is negligible.

Yep

That'll get you up the hills nicely next year.

Is there a plan for next TVR group trip to the Pod?

Possibly negligible, but cooler going in from the charger should mean cooler coming out to the Plenum, every little helps.
Used to monitor inlet temps on my scooby so its a bugbear of mine.

I will be at York in 2 weeks if anyone is adventurous enough to tag along.

Will check the calendar and see if we can pick a date at the pod or Shakey.

Neal ran 11.9 with over 400 bhp but his car was a different animal.
I think with your tyres and smooth power delivery you can beat that. Barrie will be ahead of you tho.

Can you just turn up and race??
