[andy-mac 4]

looking good doing a god job here can't beat a turbo 205

Can't beat anything with a turbo andy lol.

 

Spent another wee hour on the pug today. I got the turbo to I/c boost pipe mocked up and trial fitted, just to make sure it's going to clear the rad ect.

 

 

 

 

I'm now waiting on another silicone hose and I'll get the I/c to t/b pipe made. Also purchased a set of bx clocks that have had the rev counter modified so that it will work with the motronic managment. I'll possibly fit them tomorrow.

[Josh_Quant 27]

I love your wheels.... what make are they....?

[Ryan_g1 9]

They are fondmetal 4000's mate.

 

Got a wee bit more done today, inlet pipe and filter trial fitted. Also removed the loom AGAIN because I wasn't happy with how it was sitting. So I'll chop my spare loom up this week and make another loom.

 

I'm waiting on some more parts now, well I'm trying to source them. Currently looking for a 32mm - 10mm t piece and a 15mm t piece. These will allow me to finish off the coolant system.

 

 

 

And here's the modified bx clocks that I purchased off of here

[Ryan_g1 9]

[Rolando 10]

[Ryan_g1 9]

As in the pipe work for the idle control valve slo?

[Slo 283 1 Cars]

[Ryan_g1 9]

Yeah mate I just welded a take off into the metal boost pipe. What did you use?

[Slo 283 1 Cars]

Never welded ally i just bought a tee piece with an inch take off, it just fits in perfect in the exact place the original take off was

[Ryan_g1 9]

[Ryan_g1 9]

Well nothing much has happened with the 205 lately. The engine is coming back out of it over the next week or two and will be for sale of anyone is interested in it?

[Slo 283 1 Cars]
