She gets on OK with my main car which is probably just as quick

Diesel Merc last time I heard

[~nomad~]

got a number...

for my mum? you dont wanna go there, i kicked the f**k out of the last bloke who came on to her.

i can run fast haha

[~nomad~]

lol, i am joking of course. but you cant have m mums number no, she does have good taste in cars thou, anyway enough derailing this thread.

back on topic, marks shlong is great.

[Excursion]

Eh Diesel? I had that back in 2008. Current is CLK 55 AMG. You already asked me that Max, maybe last year sometime

I PM'd Leigh my number, but he hasn't sent me any filth yet

[Excursion]

I have tracked down a V Band exhaust housing, TiAL make one in both .64 and .86 A/R

This is perfect, but only worth doing if the WRC external wastegate tubes fit under the bonnet. I'll have to test fit in order to find out.

[Max M4X WW]

I must have forgotten!

How much power now then?

what filth wud u like i could send a pictuer of me all dirty in mud for you if thats ya thing

[Excursion]

It's gonna depend on the head, and whether I go for larger valves. CBA to do all that right now.

350 is probably a sensible estimate

[jonyb4]

the poor tyres

Turbo chosen. The GT2860RS 'Disco Potatoe' would have been just OK, but a little on the small side for 330+ and would prevent any future upgrades.

The Turbo I'll be using is the GT2871 with a .86 exhaust housing, as it will give a better surge margin and more boost available throughout the rev range. There's no real point going second hand so I'll order a new one from the states.

The brand new WRC Inconel manifold is on its way from Germany. I will order a TiAL 40mm external wastegate at the same time as the turbo.

[jonyb4]

proper stuff then

[RS rob]

proper stuff then

one way of saying it i suppose


what kind of rev range are you expecting to have with that turbo mark?
special cams?

I don't want to extend the rev range any more than 7.5k, the engine just isn't up to it long term, IMO.

Great project mate - I love the new manifold and turbo selection - it should be great fun to drive

[Excursion]

New inlet manifold. I've wanted to use this manifold for about nine years now, but never had a project that would suit it.

It has 46mm ITB's and a great plenum design that I can easily space to suit my capacity requirements.

It's going to be a lot of work, and I'm not sure about fitment around a black top alternator, and also in my application the engine will be tilted to aid weight distribution, but if I can make it work it'll be amongst the best of the Zetec inlet manifolds to date.

Here are the port centres compared with a Rover inlet gasket, pretty close! A small amount of welding and porting required on Cyl. 1 and 4.

Other examples:

[jonyb4]

Looks like a cossie inlet to me, nice thou should add some ponies and look good too

[Sphinx]

Is that a Pulsar inlet?

[filtra]

Yeah, looks like a pulsar inlet, didn't sunil run / plan to run one on his n/a 2l?

[jonyb4]

as in the 1.3 pulsar?

why would a 1.3 inlet be any good on a 2.0?

[leighk2010]

nice inlet mark dont look like to much work at all to fit

[Ruishy1]

inlet from a nissan sunny gtir, sr20det engine.
nice

[~nomad~]

as in the 1.3 pulsar?

why would a 1.3 inlet be any good on a 2.0?

because Pulsars are not 1.3, thats why.

Well that thread didn't go very well, worried for you mark

[Excursion]

Ahh cool, I'd forgotten all about that thread TBH. I've had this for years.

I'm not worried, if you don't take risks then you don't learn anything new

[RS rob]

Well that thread didn't go very well, worried for you mark

i'm worried you thought a pulsar is a 1.3

[jonyb4]

I had got it confused with the scarlet

[Sphinx]

You mean Starlet?

[~nomad~]

good times - back on topic, pretty interested in this, if it can be made to fit. How do you think it will compare with jenveys in a NA setting Mark?

I don't see why this wouldn't be just as good, if not better. It should be as good as the massively expensive Jenvey set up with the alloy plenum.

The ports are close enough to get a decent match after a little welding and re-shaping. mMy main concern is packaging, it may be Ok for you with the Silvertop, though!

[Ruishy1]

what are the distances for the ports mark ?
this has given me an idea

PS For a Turbo app the ITBs don't make any difference at WOT, although going from part throttle to WOT is much crisper. It's worth it for the small outlay of the second hand manifold.

It should however make a significant difference in your N/A application.
