where's the update mr ferrari boy?
You been stalking me? :P where's the update mr ferrari boy?
No i mentioned its nearly finished. 2bar pressure we worked out we could see 700whp, but thats alot. lol. 1.5bar should see 500whp, thats enough? lol.
I need this weekend on it solid to do a few bits then she can go for mapping. However my dads called and said he needs a hand on Sunday
I need to spray the intercooler and blow off valve black, oh they look awful. I will also get some black mesh infront of it all. Try and get some of the sleeper look back. Althought its gone abit hardcore, function over looks. lol.

On Saturday i had about 6hr and put in the Turbo Gaskets, New Adapter bolts. Adjusted the pipe work, Set up the oil cooler. I looked at it and kinda felt emotional, dunno why, just felt like all my hard work has paid off. I wasnt supposed to touch this project but a change in tuners circumstances ment i had to do alot, its not about the money that got me, i think the hard work, decidcating my weekends to it, 10hrs on Saturday, Sunday, as i live away during the week (work).
I cant wait to have my weekends back, and not have to stress about the car etc. Boost Controller / Oil Pressure Gauge / BOV, my bro is gonig to hook up for me during the week as im away. Then next week, mapping

Cheers for the comments all.
Im dropping her of this weekend for a few bits and mapping hoping to pick her up next weekend.
I will be discussing adding a swirl pot and then going for a map of "what we can get until the injectors max out" per say. We reckon that could be 750hp. My tuner who is my very very good friend, like family (built the engine and spec'd everything with me" told our close friend that engine and turbo could make 1000hp but not to tell me as im not right in the head.......well my mate told me today.......now i want a swirl pot and to turn up the boost on the bad boy
"Lets see what she gots"

Im going to speak to the company im taking it to on the weekend for mapping and a few bits, to maybe add in a swirl pot and try and turn it upto 2.0bar and see if the injectors are ok at 750hp. And go from there
I do get excited and carried away, but i do want a fast 1/4. CPL have a 9.9second in FWD EP3. If i get into alot, im going to have to take of my big brake kit, get 15" wide front wheels and expanding drag tyres. Then forged drive shafts, carbon gears / syncro's and have a gearbox rebuild, stronger clutch cylinder and im pretty sure with it stripped out and setup for drag i could get a good time. But then i cant use it on the road, so trying to get a good balance is going to be difficult.

After reading through the thread and seeing a turbo that size in a FWD ATR, you finish off with a statement like the one above... Hats off to you mate - that'll be a monster once it's running!!
Just wondering if you've told your insurance company yet and if they've laughed their tits off?
I can just picture the conversation now...
Mr K12: I'd like to add some modifications to the policy.
monkey in call centre: Sure sir, can you list those please?
Mr K12: mainly brakes, suspension, wheels, oh and a rather large turbo conversion.
monkey in call centre: Okay sir, and how much of a power increase is the turbo?
Mr K12: oh, ummm, errr, around 350% of the original car.
monkey in call centre:
Then followed by much teeth sucking and bending over.
