Hey cuz, ye gonna be external coil pack with leads most probably.... Wouldn't know where to get and don't care to get 0.8 to 1.2 ohm separate internal coils at this stage, just want the biatch running now.... Will do a nice alu cover for her though with lead holes to look pretty at least. Chance for a different look so all good..... Would have loved to keep the original coils though but not wanting to work with Dictator module and not gonna try getting the CA module wired up now, hecktic travel schedule and just want to get her going for once and for all.....

Gonna be tuned for 0.8 bar boost though for now until I get the other turbo on and a bucket of afgas in the tank, then gonna put her upto 1.5 bar boost.....

I also want to get ur dyno'd for wet weather so I can swop maps when it rains..... CarPC will come into play there, lol

OK My baby is finally running, I have not read the Dyno results yet but she is apparently pulling 168 BHP on the wheels...... Will upload the dyno results when I'm back home....

Still only on STD 0.5 bar boost so don't be to disappointed gents, still a bit of work to go on her.

Ha ha, Ya shot for the vote of brokeness BG......

Anyway gents.... 0.5 Bar I haven't even bothered playing with yet, she feels good on 1 bar though....... I can feel though she is screaming for more power though, so ye, potential is definitely there but now I want to put the bigger turbo on, get my computer in, boost controller, then I should be ready to retune her for 1Bar properly.....

Running perfectly though without pinging and screams quite nicely when she boosts, Now I just need to for now sort out my BOV which is a little to tight on the spring, so will cut a loop out tomorrow and check how she does then.

Some slight touch ups required here and there and once warm has a slight problem starting, and also has a very slight almost like a miss going, but hardly noticable, or I'm just to bloomin fussy...m.

On full boost aswell....where is the actuator pipe...huh...whats that :roll: :lol:

Shot Mark / Derek,

Well It still kak though, I think the actuator spring is to soft, it's opening automatically at 0.8 in first and 1 bar in second and so on.... Ugggg wat a drag that is.....

Derek, Actuator vacuum lines are for woos-es.... he he he :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

This morning my car started bogging, you know like when you boost and all of a sudden the nose just dips..... Eish I fot such a fright, I haven't heard any ping or nothing.... So I decided to put the actuator vacuum back on..... Lo and behold, she was still doing it...... So I figure, let's just see what happens if I put petrol in and hey presto, the actuator vacume if off again needless to say, lol. I seriously need to connect my fuel gauge, ha ha ha

So ok, now discussed with my boet and we gonna be doing some useless crap removal from my car..... This means ripping out the guts and chopping all and any unused harness and AC piping..... We then gonna steam out the engine bay and polish the motor, and at the same time, might aswell redo the boost pipes so I got less silicone hose all over..... I think this also then calls for a custom pipe with BOV bracket and air temp sensor adapter built onto it..... Along with a custom cold air intake and new zorst straight through, BOV spring needs to have a ring or 2 chopped though, coz she only opens over 0.5 bar boost on throttle release... Eish....

What U guys thing of a 76 downpipe including a Lambda nut with oposing twin 63 going into 2 tilted Jap Boxes peeking out the back in oposite directions... ???
