LOL! sounds like fun (although both of yours should be quicker than mine)

It's not about being quicker, it's about crossing the line before our unreliable engines blow up.

Well I am, I sold mine to Chris above which is why his is turboed. :D 8) The downpipe off the turbo from speed-source fits like a dream, but even THEIR manifold has issues. The oil return is slightly too low so you need to fit a scavenge pump, and the turbo has to be re-clocked so the hot pipe come...

I fancy a trip to Santa Pod later this year, fancy seeing what our motors can do tim?

Edit: that vid is kinda what my car is like without the oil feed restricotr

Shame I don't have a supercharger

No, no [-X sorry I should be clearer. The cables are the same, or at least if they are different it doesn't make it difficult to change to the supercharger lights. The difference is the lock mechanism as the supercharger one pokes out into the lights more, and in order to swap to the supercharger li...

No, it was a toyota corolla gti,

Sadly he was not wearing his seatbelt, but the engine was still running when the witnesses approached the car.

Not really, only if I had hit my head on the non-airbagged steering wheel, which had knocked me clean out and somehow prevented me from turning the ignition off

But in summary, 2 cars on a traffic light drag strip, car a has lightened pulleys, car b is standard. Car a will get to the finish quicker (in theory, depending on driver, policeman waiting in a layby etc)

I think thats the point of it all really, any improvement is still an improvement.

Throttle body is 2 1/2" internal diameter.

Small dash bulbs for ciggy lighter and heater controls are type 286.

Large dash bulbs for the speedo are type 501.

You need 3 of each for a mk1a - go to www.ultraleds.co.uk

It has always been ok to post links to other places if they answer the question concerned

I have indeed fitted a turbo to mine 8) Its not easy to get all the bits together, and mine's not 100% finished yet as it has a few teething problems - but it goes like stink and sounds the business :thumleft: First thing to read is the HKS Turbo fitting guide in the IMOC Knowledge Base, this will g...
