The final drive change makes it feel like the engine has a useful mid range now. It's much more usable and the engine can show its power without doing silly speeds. The tall gearing before only allowed the high rev power to show. It's on the edge of traction in 2nd gear now.
I'm not convinced the new flywheel was worth the expense but it won't slow things down.
Next step is a remap. It's a bit spluttery at low revs and so it definitely needs a tidy up.

#1189: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Dec 23, 2016 6:39 pm ---- Well after the remap I might eventually look at building a high compression bottom end with forged rods and pistons. That will allow for a higher rev limit...that will need another remap! Might look at oil coolers soon. So that will come first.

#1195: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jan 21, 2017 6:45 pm ---- Reckon wheels like on Jeremy's Maserati would suit a 206? I've always liked them. They look like O.Z Rallyes to me.

#1197: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jan 21, 2017 7:38 pm ---- Yeah they look ok. Years ago they also did Sparco Chromadora wheels and they looked good.
#1198: Re: Project sleeper Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Jan 21, 2017 7:44 pm ---- considered these for my 180 but ended up buying td pro race 1.2's in anthracite which I never got round to fitting
#1199: Re: Project sleeper Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Sat Jan 21, 2017 8:39 pm ---- I think you should get some MO5's like I want to
#1200: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sun Jan 22, 2017 10:00 am ---- These are similar but I think they only do 16" max.
