What engine is in it?

 

1800 rst

 

 

Is that a Fiesta with an Intercooler strapped to the front of it, or an intercooler with a Fiesta strapped to the back of it ?

What kind of power output, I am guessing 250 bhp ?

 

Hi Matt, looks a bit vunerable to damage, how about a guard of some sort?

 

its not quite that as its just undrivable at 800 kgs ,
its only running 13 psi at the mo due to the fact its on set up mode again due to lots of new parts including the intercooler ,but around 200 would be a good reliable figure @ 18 psi , when the new engine is built its gonna be more but there are other factors ie ,g/box and wider wheels to sort yet ,the problem we had before was the act's were making it back off due to being stuck behind the light almost ,there is a noticable differance already to torque and responsivness ,as for some pprotection to the cooler there isnt really anywhere to attach a guard or grill ,
gonna have to sort somthing though ,
also pmsl @jacko ,yep it is a tad big but really aggressive heheheehhcheers

Not just damage from stones etc, Dare i say it Er Chavs !!!!

 

Good luck to you, always good to see individual projects. The only thing that worries me is the legal side if for example someone touches it etc etc and gets burnt or if you hit something with hot metal exposed.

 

Also, the "chav" minority (or majority as it seems nowadays) could quite easily take a knife to the expose samcos/intercooler - resulting in you not being able to run the car!

Trust me there is no danger of that happening.

This car is taken from its garage, driven very hard then put back. even when it is outside the house on its own I wouldn't fancy myself against Matt and family!!

Can't wait to see how it fairs against the scoob up the local 'dragstrip'!!

(Matt knows where I mean!! )

 

wouldnt wanna go up against that thing, bet it flies !

 

it does ok , james bud ,the new and improved hose joiners will be here tomorow and so will the micalor's ,hope fully then we can keep the boost in the engine lol,or the scoobie recovery vehicle on standby lol
the local's know the car and when its out its not left and its watched all the time ,
it should now be realiable to 190-200 bhp ,its just grip thats the problem ,fine when its up and running ,cheers for all the good words
matt

 

vigerously tested and its a different car again ,
the torque has gone mad and its not as responsive to start off with but it now pulls right to the red line with full boost and its effortless at speed ,which is cool as now the boost can go up and the cooler is really cold all the time
cheers
matt

 

pro is about right aswell, read into this as you will.

 

what????

 

WTF???

Anyway the Fez is flying I actually having to rev to keep up!!!

The flames are funny too!!! made that pug back off quick anyway!!!!

 

well james m8 ,it must have threatened his small and tender ego bud ,"pro" must mean "produced the goods !" ehh bud
now we'll get your de-cat sorted and its game on again
cheers
matt

 

Yup, MOT on wednesday then (re) de-cat and a 'shakedown' to Bristol on friday

Still don't fancy taking on yours with more boost though!!

My passengers were screaming too much last night so will be on my own next time LOL

 

pmsl, the fezz is quite funny when it pops and bangs lol, when you grabbing the r/angel bud
it will be interesting to see what differance the de-cat makes
cheers
matt

 

thursday might be a shake down day too lol

 

Are you allowed or should I say legal to have your parts exposed???

on the other hand you must have nice cold air feeding the turbo with that...

 

there should'nt be a problem ,the edges are all rounded a smooth and its within the outer edge of the bumper ,and it works rather well as i said before cheers
