thats one hell of a project. well done.

an ecotek valve?! its been proven they do nothing on a fuel injected car
(and its common sense)
take it off before someone slaps you. :p
 
lol i had it from a previus car lol just thought it couldnt hurt lol

it will all be going soon if i can source a dameged 20vt and if i cant find one ill be going ahead with the supercharger again lol after i sold the last one and cant find another lol

its not very good sound quality is it lol
 
well yes and no lol i know a coupe20vt is the tried and tested way but im not a conventional person lol im going to be fitting a coupe dash eventualy but i want to make it go and stop first, i was buying some big brakes but im still waiting to gear back from the kid aswell as some new wishbone with superflex bushes in.
 
finally someone with some common sense, sorting braking and handling first is the way to go (y)


as for the project with a supercharge 20v, hell yeah, I know its a revvy engine, but with a decent 'charger build would really it give it some low end growl, and the 'charger whine coupled with the 20v howl, pure sex for the ears :cool:
 
lol have you heard that marea weekend thats supercharged? look in marea/styling/marea weekend check it out
 
well the proper 20vt intercooler came yesteday
bigger than the 16v one

thats what i thought lol i think they usualy look a bit tacky with ultra bright colours but i think they look well sorted, kinda like the seats in my dads old delta 16valver and i like the fact they arent leather but instead suede wich gives them that rare feal lol
 
Just for future reference, coupe 20v N/A runs a more tweeked front suspension set up to the hgt it seems to have more camber, and has different hubs and bigger discs. Springs are interchangable.


Will be cool to see the supercharger plumbing (y)
 
what im gunna do is have things built as i need them so it cuts th cost down into smaller lumps as the M62 is slightly bigger than the 45 ive got to put a bulge in the bonnet down on the front left wich im not that happy about to be honest cos i wanted it to keep it sort of low key on the outside but needs must i suppose.

Go raid a halfords parts bin and make it a chav mobile... then everyone will assume it is 1.2 (y)
 
I hope you are keeping a good complete record of how you are going about with the supercharging!
Th work you and claymore2k are doing could be the start of something big for all us 20Valvers.
Who needs a turbo F.I.R.E when you can have a supercharged 20v! :D
 
im taking pics all the way and gunna write all the stuff up and i know claymoe has loadsa pics too, i cant wait for the playstation3 to sell so i can sort some stuf out, i dont know weather to jump in to the deep end and buy a charger now or weather to buy the brake upgrades ive got planned, wich i might add will give you wip lash at the sniff of the pedal lol.
