Spot-on mate, the catch can was cheap so I'm not convinced it's baffled; I'll put some wire wool inside to catch most of the oil and what's left as vapours with go out of the vent. It also means it won't creat an over-pressure

 

Thankyou Jon ill order one of those too. The can I got is baffled assume I'd still need a filter on top too?

Martin

 

Yes mate - even my old Mk1 fiesta had a filter on the breather when I fitted a K&N

 

Lol for the sake of a few quid ill order one aswell. How's yours coming along now mate? Still going with the carberry rom?

Martin

 

Slow mate, but yes. I need to give Ryan a bell and see how my paint work is coming along. About to order some parallel fuel rails and make up all of the hoses

 

Good stuff Jon. When you speak to Ry tell him to send me my vent back lol

Martin

 

Ps where did you get the ALS n LC letters for your switches

Andy you was a great help with the pics etc got there in the end. Keep me posted when he gets back to you am defo up for it buddy

Martin

 

On the rollers in the morning can't wait

Will post up some results tomorrow

Martin

 

Just the excuse you need to start a stroker build

 

Haha cheers Jon lets see if the old girl can make the 340hp estimated

The start of collecting parts for Alyn shall begin next week

Martin

 

what engine mods have you got mart? as in what turbo and injectors and things

 

Is that all of the salvagable engine parts from the sump

 

VF34 turbo
Hdi fmic
550 pinks
KnN inner wing induction
Maffless
Blitz Nur spec R system
Tgv deletes
Hrc 255 fuel pump
3 port BS
Harvey's (RIP) ported headers n up pipe

Running carberry rom just hoping for something close to 340 with similar torque.

Martin

 

Good luck Martin, looking forward to seeing the results.

Very similar spec to my previous blob, apart from you have a FMIC and I had a HS (RIP) TD05 18g / AVCS heads. That car did 345bhp but was mapped by Race Dynamics (was a little disappointed in power). I would expect Andy to get similar out of your spec all being well bud

Mine is going for the bits fitted on Tuesday and we are trying to get Andy do mine at the same time or the day after

 

Put up a little list gav

fill me confidence why don't you Jon

Martin

 

Martin, did you run a fmic and aps at the same time?

 

Cheers Andy anything around there I'd be happy with. Will update tomorrow with a smile, I hope

Martin

 

Yes Roy had them both on when the car was with Andy for carberry

Martin

 

It'll be alright mate, always happy to help

 

I know Jon cheers looking forward to it now going with a mate who's got similar mods on a classic so should be a bit of banter aswell

Martin

 

I want to run both but dont know where the hell the ic pipe will go

 

Roy have a look at this pic you can see where the aps pipe goes under the ic pipe into the 1st hole in the wing



This is how it changed now with the ic pipe going into the 1st hole and air pipe running straight



Martin

 

Beaut, I was worried there wasn't room In the wing for both

 

It's tight Roy but it can be done

Martin

 

Ive ordered an hdi full kit so we will see bit **** the pipe joiners dont come in red though
