is it running yet?

did you look at importing it rather than the more expensive uk supplier?

are you running V3 board with MSII ?

[Asad]

Got 3 out of 6 bolts, some EFI fuel hose and clips.

Sorted out the fuel rail, just need to plumb into the return and feed.

Was your post aimed at me?


Im running MS with V2.2 board.

Thanks for the part numbers mate - it's ok regarding the temp sender as I already have one like yours anyway

As I get home round half six, its too dark to properly finish this off.

So in the mean time I have been sorting out the fuel pipes and throttle cable bracket.

I'll post pics of the fuel piping later.

But here is how I managed to stick with the ford throttle cable

I started off with the bracket with the edge cut off:-




The lower corner was going to be bolted down:-




But as you can see, the cable does not line up properly with the bracket:-





So I made the hole for the second bolt :-




And I bent the bracket into place so that it would line up correctly :-




Finished product! :-




Oh and I also had to use a 8mm drill bit to enlarge the nipple hole slightly. Otherwise the Ford cable nipple wouldnt fit.

I tested it with the cable in place and it worked as it should! Not catching anywhere, and full throttle opening was achieveable.


Not much left but to bolt it all on. Roll on the weekend!

More pics please Get a Video up once its running, I'd love to hear the roar of it

[Sunil_FiestaRS_16V]

Looking good mate. When you get it all running will have to hook up again would love to hear it and see it go .

Got mine running alot sweeter since last time i saw ya, pulls alot better but hits a slight flat spot at around 5k .

[Asad]

Was tuning it up last night....runs very sweet! Sounds amazing too!
I installed my Wideband O2 sensor too, made tuning sooo much easier.


Got a RR session booked tomorrow, so hopefully run even better.

As for a video :-

Asad

[krsi]

[chris-fiesta]

[McNugget]

Right lets start from the top!

Here is the stub manifold fitted. I had all the bolts and gasket etc:-




This is with the TBs fitted. No injectors or fuel rail yet:-




You can see my modified throttle linkage. Fits well :-




Long shot:-




My injector rail with the 330cc injectors fitted:-




Brand new injectors:-




Fuel rail is on. You can see the fuel feed pipe at the top:-




And with all the fuel pipes plumbed in, as well as the loom :-




Close up. Wiring is a bit messy at the moment:-




How I made the fuel feed:-




And going to the fuel filter :-




And all on and running! :-




I have since tidied up the loom, fitted an oil breather in a cool location, and tidied up bits and bobs.

I have been tuning it as well, which has been made all the easier with the wideband sensor!

This thing is very loud now! Especially on full throttle! Pops and bangs like crazy, ive even seen it flame!

Will take some more pics of the breather and Wideband controller. Just got the ST170 exhaust manifold to go. And I need to fit an air filter somehow... i have a few ideas!

[FezzR]

top bannana mate

looks like you need a new fuel filter

[Zetecfiesta]

looks sweet as mate, that video is so cool is sounds amazing!

[DanS2i]

Where have you fitted the vacuum pipe from the brake servo to?

Thanks

Dan

[ant pittaway]

cant get video to work

[FezzR]

are you trying to right click save as? if so your doing it wrong its not dowloadable

[FezzR]

Where have you fitted the vacuum pipe from the brake servo to?

Thanks

Dan

you can see in the pics its the thicker red pipe

[DanS2i]

Of course it is!! If I had only opened my eyes I would had seen that for my self!

Thanks

Dan

[Asad]

Yep, I used the Bike Injector bungs for Vacuum.

Here are some pics of the engine bay pretty much completed (aside from exhaust manifold) :-













FezzR - you can see my breather! Not bad for £40 and it fits nicely too!



Asad

[j_man69]

holy bejeeesus what it sound like when its running ??

i need to learn this stuff

[FezzR]

tis good, ammuses me you have some seriously clean shiny stuff and some grubby looking standard stuff lol (coolant tank, battery and master cylinder)

i wouldnt have mounted the catch tank on its side, wont catch much if any oil that way

look forward to seeing exhaust manifold

[Asad]

Lol i know!

The brake reservoir is leaking, so i'm looking to replace that with an escort one. That should take care of that.

Might keep an eye out for a new water bottle.

Battery will stay as it is! lol


Had a word with Power flow about modifiying the ST170 exhuast manifold I have and they wanted £325! Could get a ready made one for that!

Will see if I can do it myself. If not, ill just buy the correct one.


Cheers for all the comments!



Asad

[FezzR]

what needs doing to it?
you could get a complete custome made one for £350, they have a habbit of being over priced but they obviously didnt want do it and just quoted you silly money so you dont come back
