We will have to go down there for a photoshoot one day when the suns out. I actually went down there to see if there was any racing on and to get a noise level test for my car as I want to do a few top speed/trtack days in it this year, once I get a cage in it!

Good effort!

Sounds the bollox mate!

[bakewell001]

Sounded the bees knees on the convoy matey!

[Matt_fez]

Cheers mate, had a small hitch when I tried to launch a bit hard (5th to 3rd) while racing my mate in his escos. The engine moved a bit too much and the throttle cable got snagged on the brake bar!! Quick pit stop and we were on our way again. I think some vibratechnics mounts need to be purchased.

Saw you by the side of the road - didn't stop as i presumed if it was an easy fix, the both of you could EASILY catch up with us

[Matt_fez]

yeah didn't take long lol

lol I don't get out much mate According to him it only needs a couple of tyres then an MOT, but that was about a month ago We will see.

The wheels are 7.5"x16" mate.

Cheers,
Matt

with that ZT i'm not suprised, i bet it drinks fuel like its going out of fasion. its been 2 or 3 years since that car went away for the LET engine, would be good to see it out and about killing all the ricers again

are you going to ford fair???

[Matt_fez]

Yeah it is quite juicy but i'm just too busy to get out much in the evenings. I use it as my daily drive so it gets plenty of use

If you believe what Louis says that Nova is the fastest thing on the road I hope it gets it going soon though for his sake he has worked his nuts off doing it. If you look on the devil-developments website (link below my sig) there's some pics of it on there with the worlds biggest intercooler!!!

Yeah I'm going to Ford Fair - hopefully gonna get some more bits done to the Fiesta by then e.g more boost, anti-lag & coilovers. Will be a proper weapon then.

[Matt_fez]

Well as promised I have some pics taken at Goodwood a couple of weekends ago:

I hadn't washed/polished it for these photos henc it's a little bit dirty!!





A couple from FITP...

[onslack]

your car looked and sounded the funlumps on sunday, got a little video clip of you going past me

never got a chance to say hello at thurrock though

[Matt_fez]

Cheers mate,

I got a short video at Goodwood .....


Get your vid up mate, was quite a good laugh on the convo hopefully I'll meet you at another show, Ford Fair?

zt daily drive.....the stuff of dreams
holy shizzle balls that intercooler is massive!!! i like the oil cooler zip tied to the rad
i might have to pop down to yaptonite to check this place out, looks like some serious engine work goes on

[Matt_fez]

Well it's been a long time since I've updated so I'll try to fill you in on what's been happening with my car....in case anybody is interested!?

Since the last posts I have:
Fitted a GRS intercooler
Fitted an oil cooler
Changed the exhaust manifold
Re-fabricated the exhaust downpipe
Fitted a small turbo escos throttle body
Changed the exhaust cam to that of a frs
Fitted a second rear arb
Fitted some new wheels - 7"x16" Comp MO6's with 195/40/16 Toyo Proxes
Fitted escort cosworth clocks - 170mph reading
Fitted carbon battery and plug covers
Fitted an MSD coil pack and new leads
Had the car mopped

We went to Surrey Rolling Road last August and made 346bhp @ 25psi - but while at SRR we knew something wasn't right Upon inspection back at the workshop we found pieces of ally(intercooler?) embedded into the pistons and 4 bent valves. So it has had a new set of pistons and valves.

A couple of pictures for you....







I've got loads more pics so let me know if you want to see anthing in particular.

[Dave G fsi]

This car is awesome mate, absolutely love it!

[Ram]

looks stunning on the comps shame you've left the azev club though lol

[jimmyesh]

346bhp, that's really good going for the spec

I take it that's a "silver-top" Zetec you have fitted? How did you get a FRS Exhaust cam (Black-Top Zetec) to fit the Silver-Top head? I thought the two types of cams weren't interchangeable between the Black & Silver Top heads

Fair play to you though - it's producing the goods!

Thanks mate, but what do you mean for the spec? You make it sound like it should only make 200bhp
I thought it was quite a well spec'd build - how could I improve the spec? I know you have a great knowledge and I'm very impressed by your duratec build. Obviously I want to improve my engine wherever I can

I'm sure I was told that they are the FRS cams but if they don't fit then they most probably aren't!! I will speak to my engine builder to confirm

[M1K3Y_B]

Looks spot on now

[FRSJON]

a gorgeous car.... looks stunning and straight.. they do look good in black... those comps are perfect but look small...

[SEG1]

i think your power figures are very impressive.
i was told ill make around 300+ with my spec.
how much torque are you running?

[EUFez]

Immense! Love it.

[M1K3Y_B]

Thats because you've got too used to seeing those massive wheels on the MANG

.. maybe but the azev's look bigger...

[Matt_fez]

Cheers guys, the Comp's are 7x16's with 195/40 and the Azeva's ae 7.5x16 running 205/40's so they filled the arches that little bit more.

I really wasn't sure when I first put the Comp's on but I am now in love (I'm still keeping the Azev's for a while - you can never get bored of Azev's!!)

I think the car is currently the best it has been since I've owned it and it's come a long way from the battered XR2i it was when I picked it up. It was so bad I don't think I actually took any pictures!!

[PUMARST]

Hi do you have more photo of inlet manifold?? Cossi manifold in zetec

[cmoody123]

loving this car, spot on workmate the body work looks awesome and a great spec
as above any pics of inlet? keep up the top work

cheers craig
