What is that TB and inlet mani? Early Mk2 Punto? P75? Might suit a certain person who is popping an 8v 1. in................

Its a punto 75 manifold with the uber rare Tricker 43mm throttle body

That would be?

All your cars seem to do is collect dust . When is something going to happen to one of them?

Sorry craig, thread hijack.

Thanks

Everybody knows, so I won't further hijack. More news when I get a cage!

[craigb244]

still doing mapping. slowly building it up. only running 0.4 bar which is faf all boost wise. so quick tho.

autotest soon so ill get video there

prefer not to rag it on the road... car wouldn't be much use without a license...

 

[Todger182]

Tell me about it, The thought of either some cock copper pulling me over for something other than speeding scares me.

One thing scares me more, some cok in a bus, 4x4, or a taxi pull out in front of me on a roundabout or junction. Even worse, some old fart behind running into the back of me.

Yea i'm a paranoid driver I think .

Thanks

Love the sticker, but the round Fiat badge looks wrong. It needs smoothing, a square padge, or filling and appropriate sticker in it's place

 

[craigb244]

lol everyone thinks I've covered the lock hole with it but I just like the badge lol.

boot is smoothed. welded the hole up when the shell was built

the badge is huge tho... from a fiat van lol

 

[randomizered]

yeah, def does look like that. Not too my taste (the stickers are) but each to their own

 

[craigk]

love the sticker
cant wait for sunday evening

 

[craigb244]

pre-event checks

all bolts checked.

fluids checked

leaks check (non)

rear arb fixed and checked. (man I've missed it!!!!!!!!)

next up is fitting the silencer to my waste gate! scruts aways comments saying its nice to see a car not pushing the DB limit... some how I don't thing they (or the poor marsuls) will enjoy loosing ear drums during full throttle sections

 

[craigb244]

well that is today done I'm knackered lol

car went amazingly well. I've not seen the scores yet but on the very tight twisty test the Marshall said I've beat everyone in my class by far.

I got a video but its nit the best and don't look all that impressive sadly.

but can say I had a little race with a Marshall in hes focus RS on the way to the event and the little cento kept up with ease (was still pulling strong at 115 ) which he found funny.

anyway... video...

You never get a very real impression of speed except from front facing cameras. But looks good!

I thought that autotests were the really nadgery stuff on school carparks, swb minis and all that. That course looks like a short and twisty sprint one.

 

[blu73]

I just seen your dash on the youtube.. Looks ace, how have i not seen that yet?!?!?
