Hey guys,

Listen i was thinkin about getin two lil lights at the front of my car like fog lights or somthing.

I was thinkin of the lil round mini lights but down where my grill is and close together... what do u guys think, any ideas.

Remus

would that not block the intake for your turbo conversion?

tbh i think it would look a bit silly, i forget do you have a MK1 or MK2?

ITs a mk2. And yes it will look f**king stupid!. Theres a mk3 escort near me with a similar thing but with green lights and he looks like a goddamn fairy.

And I'd be care full put lights on you might drain too much electrical power and starve your new upgraded fuel pump and piggy back ECU to fuel the turbo.

I thought it was a quad-turbo with 10 radiators?

Screw fog lights, go down a football stadium and nick the the floodlights and smack it on the front of your car

And to top it off his car is slow as pig crap too but of course he thinks its a rally car and trys to overtake me etc..... :devil:

its a mk2 one

I'm surprised you have any money left for mods after your turbo conversion. Have you declared the turbo conversion to your insurance company?

the thread is probably called R12MUS Engine Bay Pictures....

HAAAAA HAAAAAA HAAAAAA rnt u funny.

and na not yet i got the pics but im at work everytime i get on the comp and i cant upload them.... i will let u no when i do

however i think im gona get it removed cause it costs so much on petrol and plus my insurance...

Remus

Why make up fibs on a public forum.........

What turbo did you use? You would defiantly know that even if you got some other guy to convert it for you.

that is the same excuse every internet warrior who claims they have a turbo conversion uses

if you want to be taken seriously on the forum you need to cut the bull**** and come clean that you don't really have a turbo conversion.

iirc chris lied about having a Type-R when he joined, he owned up about that and he is kinda taken seriously now

Even if you get it removed, you'll still show us the pics, right?

oh G thanks

I got some guy to do it for me.. well ma bro actually sorted it out for me and he got his mechanic to do it for free. a friend of mine works in a scrap yard so i paid very little, second hand (this is why i did it so quickly and it was cheap)

Its a T25 turbo 285cam with a front mounted intercooler and a superchip re-mapped... my mechanic took it off todai cos it was ****in the car up (he is an excellent mechanic so its not him.. could be the turbo..)

anyways.. i think im just gona keep this car or buy an Audi a3

Remus

assuming this is true...

no wonder it's ****ing the car up if you've just plonked a turbo in there and a 'superchip'. a turbo conversion on a FIRE engine would need some sort of proper management to power the injectors as the standard ECU can't see boost. in fact would most probably need bigger injectors as i doubt the standards are up to the job of fueling a turbo engine...

sounds like this 'great mechanic' isn't as great as you think. turbo conversions are quite a tricky thing to get right unless you have a ready made kit and a set of instructions to follow or are a good engineer
