Isnt this the one from ebay? Looks great but the front grill was missing i believe
thanks guys, cars having a major service to get it running spot on. crazyep82 pm me a price for the grill i might be interested. Anyone know of any places that do performace mods for these as i cant find any.
thanks mate i live in medway about 10 mins from you lol
Ah *feels silly now", I swear I saw that on ebay in Ireland.
Your best bet is to speak to Ed, http://www.fusion-motorsport.co.uk his workshop is located near Thorpe Park. He owns two of these and is building a monster at the moment.
He can deal with all your tuning needs.
I believe they can be taken to around 140-150 BHP with next to no effort/money spent. Although Eds the man to speak to as there is no one who knows them better in this country!!!
ive never heard of a high lift cam by mines, i thought they only did ecu's. The cars have a full service at the mo and they are going to find out if it has a uprated cam or not.
will probably speak to ed sometime soon, would having the head ported and polished help at all?
looks the goods mate, if you don't want to rip the thing apart yourself, then being near Eds workshop is a very good thing as it seems he knows them backwards!
if you do feel like getting your hands dirty tho its pretty rewarding when you do fix things up, i'm no mechanic but i've got mine running pretty well now
tell me about it im trying to find one for my girlfriends k10 but having no luck
Best bet other than to get over excited by reading this thread here is to do these very simple things, if you really want to do anything:
Put a decent exhaust on it (2 inch) from downpipe, and gut the cat.
Move the lambda sensor to AFTER the turbo.
Remap the ecu.
That is all you need to do. Anything else is excessive (i.e. pointless) for your power aims.
Stock cams/head will do 180-200bhp with supporting mods. The engine however will not (for long).
