Looking mint lee good work by all

glad too see it finally sorted mate

personally i would have went TMIC on a vf43..

but a suppose your bumper is already cut and all that so dont blame you for sticking with the FMIC .

Thanks drew

Finn i was in 2 minds what to do inter cooler wise then I seen this at a good price on auction and just bought it,

Looking good Lee. Who's got the job of mapping that lot for you and what you expecting after the long road to recovery ?

bob's doin it mate he's up on wednesday to put a base map on it so lee can get it ran in! and when its mapped again should b around the 400bhp mark depending wat the turbo will do!

thanks kgt, bob Rawl is doing the mapping, I'll be happy if it makes 380 with the vf43 but all depends if the turbo is up to the job

Coming along nicely and looking good

What front mount is it mate?

Cheers robbo

The front mount is just a cheap 1 j performance i think

Looking well glad it sorted pal

Thanks mate

top job lads nice to see it up and running

looking good fellas....good to see you finally getting it sorted

Keep up the Good Work - It can only get better

thanks lads

engine going good nealy 1000 miles on it now from the second oil change its done 700 miles and hardly used a drop of oil and ive got a weep from the dipstick tube where it conects to the sump

really good on fuel aswell off boosts like i took it to work this week and come the long way i went through saltburn,whitby,scarborough, bridlington, beverlly, onto the humber bridge then into grimsby to work and it used just over quarter of a tank from being brimmed happy to say the least as i was expecting a full tank lol

fort it was about time this was updated!

car got mapped back in july, few problems when mapping but got there in the end, but while mapping found out that the turbo is not big enough due to the head work that got done when the engine was rebuilt! still running good power but not at the full potential of the new engine! bigger turbo needed

well! all was going well for the first time since lee got the car but then a few weeks ago the gearbox went

lee managed to find a cheap 5 speed for the time being while he saves for the all important 6 speed for when the bigger turbo is fitted and the power increased!

so out came the old box and the new box is ready to go in tomorrow!
i stripped the old box to try see what had gone wrong and i found some of the gears were missing teeth and there was a small metal pin in the bottom of the box, not sure where that metal pin has come from or if its that that has done the damage

nice are you fixing it yer selves like ? That easy gears is good like

.Ooh no sorry to hear that mate,
images look like there off a video nasty
That brings back bad memorys when I forged my wagons engine then got 5-6 from my 5speed box .....bang...crunch.
