Nom.

How do you do away with the dizzy set up for COP?

After the COPs change over the dizzy cap is just there to tell the crank positioning i think.

One of the last things to do is to buy a crank trigger kit so i can remove the dizzy cap.

It's purely for cosmetic purposes

LOVE what your doing, had a run in a mates 300bhp one yearsss ago and that was mental on irish roads. just out of interest how will 400bhp+ cope, it'll want to kick the back out at every corner will it not??

neil.

Thanks everyone for the compliments, after 10 years of ownership now coming in August the car is finally getting the way i want it.

Just want to add the car has been 100% reliable in all the time I've had it unless it was something i did. (Left the lights on in a service station on the motorway and the battery ran out )

Maintenance is done religiously oil changed every 4 months.

Power is kinda of manic at the top in but like any car if fed in a linear manner it's fine.

I do have 2 boost settings low is 380bhp and high is that 431bhp

Looks great - who built your engine?

My friend Luke Bliss from Pacific Works now Drift Limits built it in 2014.

Excellent. Read this and commented back when it was first posted. Still desirable. Enjoy.

Hi Mate

Long time no see haha

Here's a picture I took a while ago with my scruffier Turbo. My engine has been rebuilt and a bunch of other stuff but I'd be happy with around 350bhp. Still only running a lil TD05-16



Are you coming to the memorial on the 1st?

Yes - I though as much - will probably see you up there on the 1st - we met once when we were up there - I have a sonic shadow that he converted...
