Re: Update and vid p26
Not gonna blame anyone ...
I was at the MOT station but had to get some cash.
Left the catches open as my headlights needed adjustment.
When I got back the catches were closed. didn't think about it, was just very exited to hear it had passed!
So without checking and probably even looking at my bonnet I got in the car and drove off..
I even strengthened the aerocatches so this wouldn't happen.. now windshield is going in on tuesday. the rubber is still good.
I will use the old bonnet as its still ok but a bit scuffed.
The roof is going to be taken care of by a specialist and I will fit a roofscoop and spray it matt black .
Dit lots of other things today mainly cleaned up my garage.. it was very hot in my garage but got some small things done.
Its leaking oil a little so need to sort that out.
Sparkplugs looked very good.. nice color. need to recheck the valve clearance as its tapping a little.
also a big decision is made...
BIGGER TURBO
This one is not coping with the amout of air its pumping.It has some minor detonation, my tuner says its a 700hp setup if I change the turbo and injectors.
If I get a bigger turbo I will have to have different settings.
Don't know what yet.. open for suggestions.. need to spool quickly .. gt35 or precision 62? ballbearing surgeprotection etc..
Anyway, still hoping to take it to the track next friday....
but just look at it....

no that numberplate is not legal and i did not mot it with that..
