He mounted a 820 if I read it right.
I use a 6pk818. (as we call it over here) Meaning 818mm circumference and 6 'teeth'.
But it still slips occasionally.

I have just had a 6pk825 by the local garage has been fine for about 1 month or so. but got off a working holiday last week (so stood still for 1week) started my car up and squealing like a b!@#h again. hmm but my 1st belt was ok for over 5 years of having this build but pug1off or me can't remember what we put on as it snapped off some were I can't measure it lol. I wasn't as wide I can remember that

Hmmm Does it slip or is it the bearing on the adjuster or the wheel on the adjuster just slipping on the belt. as I'm investigating this nose and it sounds like it's coming from the alternator but can't be, as that has no bearing just a pulley. So I'm thinking it's the wheel slipping on the belt.

This project is looking better than ever, nice bike too! It's good to see that you're still going with it.

Looks nice as per Edward,
Shame it doesn't get to see the road though but obviously it's being overhauled. What is your plan with this build now? no doubt missed it somewhere in all those pages. Track?

Next steps? Next purchase will be some 10mm throttle body spacers. They are about £120 delivered. I want the inlet as long as possible. I'd go for the 20mm spacers but I don't think there is enough space for them. After that I'm going to buy a different CWP to change the gearing and I might look at lightened flywheels.
I'm going to look into how to do the PAS steering hoses better too. At the moment the hose to the electric pump is a compression fitting which I'm not 100% certain is best in such a system. It might be fine but I think something more reliable can be made.
Then next spring it can go back on the road with a new set of tyres. It will need a remap ideally though and I want to calibrate the coolant temperature sensor on the Omex to that on the standard Peugeot ECU. I imagine the original ECU and sensor are well calibrated to the correct temperature so I want to make sure both ECUs match.
I guess by next year it could do with a new cambelt (it's only done about 2k miles since it was changed) and there is an oil leak from the belt side of the engine which has been there ever since Ecosse did the work.
So it's all time and money...Will be looking at new cars next year too as I've had the Jetta 4 years already. So I'll be looking at Passat CC GT TDi 170's....

A project is never finished 
Fair play, the amount of things you have replaced or upgraded this must be basically a brand new 206 lol! I look forward to your updates, I wish I had the same level of knowledge as you on cars. I restrict myself and p***y it on trying to learn in case I ruin something. The belt would probably be ok but it's not worth the risk if it's not been in use in case it's gone funny over the time.
The overall spec of this car is quite something, I bet it is quite lethal!
Nice pics!

You're right it's never finished. Ultimately I'd like a proper engine building where everything is spot on and not just a load of parts added to a basically standard engine.

I can just confirm that a 6PK 818 fits very snug with no squealing.... as of yet

A little update. Things are moving on ever so slightly. I wanted some socket cap bolts to replace the studs on the throttle bodies as they look much better. Only problem is that they won't fit these DCOE style bodies so I'll have to keep the studs.
On the underside though Ecosse fitted a mixture of bolts and studs so I replaced them all.
I used them to mount the manifold onto the head too.

It was started up last weekend and driven out of the garage that's all. It's been about 4 weeks since it was last started. I just don't have time anymore and I won't get much time to drive it either...throttle body spacers will be ordered very soon so things are still progressing.

It's a shame it doesn't get driven but hopefully you will find some time at some point to have a day were you can have some fun and go hunting in it
We need some more pics.
