Glad it's all working! Bonson's car's loud - i could only imagine what that sounds like. My 180 at 70 on a motorway is at 3600rpm!
Makes me want to do stuff to engines now. I have a gti-180 crying out for a supercharger and a 309 crying out for a supercharged gti-6 engine or a T16 should i be so lucky
A lottery win would go down very well indeed!
Hope the car was worth the wait buddy...

Looking forward to seeing pics!

It actually feels a bit gutless partly because of the noise it makes. I.e. it makes more noise than thrust.
A PM about brakes or what you wrote above somewhere?

I actually think going forced induction would be a good idea.
#175: Re: Project sleeper Author: Seabook, Posted: Tue Mar 16, 2010 7:28 am ---- got any new pics?
#176: Re: Project sleeper Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Tue Mar 16, 2010 7:29 am ---- Any pictures?
Adding up all the costs I don't think supercharging would cost that much more, ie maybe £1-£2k but that's relatively small considering what's already been spent?

Now you say! All that talk of wanting me to go N/A (and while there's nothing wrong with N/A tuning at all - it's just not as cost effective for my engine), now you say forced!
#178: Re: Project sleeper Author: Geoff, Location: Evesham, WorcestershirePosted: Tue Mar 16, 2010 10:18 am ---- If its gone from 160 to 214bhp on the same RR then that is still very impressive.
The tricky question is whats next?!
