Hi Peeps...Well Delilah went off to power engineering on tuesday to have what hopefully will be the final part of her surgery...Twin turbo's feeding 15psi to the blower with ice injection and a squirt of NOS......Not really....But what she is having done is ..The rad moved forward..A 17" 2 stage turbo boost fan fitted with an overide switch..The mechanical dizzy with the boost vacuum diaphragm...The correct spark plugs & New leads..The intake at the air box..Intake pipe and blower inlet manifold expanded to 3"..Then dyno tuned...They have established that the strangulation of the air intake is losing me 3psi which is quite a lot..They are at the stage of tigging up the pipe work and intake on the air-box so should be ready early next week..Hopefully the bhp and torque figures should be nearer to where they should be..Fingers crossed....Cheers...Ziga

Making progress Mark, sounds like there is a fair bit more power to be released yet mate...

So the twin turbos and NOS are on hold for next week then Mark?

Sounds like she is coming together nicely mate.

Hi Martin..Well fingers crossed mate she should be pushing closer to the figures that the fella i have talked to as regards to his supercharged sierra 4x4i which was 233bhp and 260lbsft of torque..It makes sense now looking at my dyno from the fest..Maximum 5 psi boost..Over fuelling on load..209bhp..190lbsft of torque..Basically PONY..I want HORSES...Looking forward to getting her back...Cheers...Ziga

PS:Might come up with chris on saturday..So may see you then...

Hi Norman...Yes the TT's are still in there box and the Rusty is on ice..By the way the rusty is the NOS..Keeping it iced until it hits the manifold is the key..The turbo's will collect the rusty's vapour and recycle it through the blower..Dont want to waste a drop...

Yeah will be good to catch up Mark, its a shame the Sx is not finished or at home! At least the intercooler is nearly plumbed in so not much more to do now !!
