Hi Guys

New to Peugeots so thought I'd join up and get some advice and do a thread for my project car. My names Andy and I've spent the last 5 years racing a MK2 Golf GTI 16V on and off in the MK2 Golf GTI Championship and also Production GTI with some success. Both series are great cost effective racing, after 5 years though and looking around at other series I decided it was time to seek pastures new as I wanted to go abit faster.

Couple of pics of the Golf

 


 


So watching the CSCC races made me realise I needed an Integra DC5 to be near the front, sadly they were abit out of reach for budget. I looked around at other cars Clio's etc but I just liked the look of the 206 and also it was abit different as as I've only seen 1 other 206 racing in Tin Tops. Managed to pick one up local to me so here it is -

 


 


 


Yeh I know the rear lights are vile! Anyway started stripping it -

 


 


 


The engine builder was ready for the donor lump but I was far from ready, this was all happening back when the weather was Siberian like conditions so enter Eliot at EDM (EDMotorsport) who I use for all my racing needs over the last 5 years, he took the job at short notice and turned it around very quickly for me.
He also kindly took some pics for me to post up. Eliot also ran the car up on his dyno to find out what power the car was making to start with.


 


 


Ronseal this one!

Thanks for the welcomes guys

Well as said earlier in the post I'm new to Peugeots and not familar with any decent Peugeot tuners. However I've attended many race meetings and spoke to other Peugeot racers who they use for engine work and the name Sandy Brown cropped up alot.

I got in touch with Sandy and after talking over my budget and time scale as he's very busy I decided to use him. So I took the engine down to his workshop in Cornwall afew weeks back with a view to having it back August / September time. Sadly this means I won't get chance to race this year but hopefully get some testing in and then race in 2014.

The car is obviously being built to a rules guide line so no over boring bigger than 2000cc etc but a brief spec will be -

Sandy spec ITB'S
Sandy spec cam's
Sandy spec piston's
Cylinder head ported and converted to solid lifters with single piece valves
Lightweight flywheel
Race exhaust manifold
DTA ecu
Pace dry sump
Run in and setup on the engine dyno and ready to go

Sandy spec means its' Sandy's spec so is custom made and not available off the shelf. The crank will be cleaned up and balanced, a steel crank would've been nice but was another £2000 Crying or Very sad

And before anyone asks, 1st rule of racing - never tell anyone how much power you've got lol

That's correct been a Jungheinrich engineer since 2002, started off working on a site and then switched to field service covering Oxfordshire. Doing lots of overtime at the mo to pay for this car Wink
