If you have a garage with a ramp or pit that i dont know about then you would be a legend, or can map a car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott87 Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Another very productive day of getting parts. I am not the proud owner of an AEM ecu that i am going to run rather than the map-ecu that i had so i can ensure i can alter the timing once im running boost. This is the ecu and here is a picture of the intercooler seeing as i bagged it for 50quid: AEM ECU Intercooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a garage with a ramp or pit that i dont know about then you would be a legend, or can map a car Its nearly bpu apart from an fcd and to plum the 2 pipes for the boost controller its pretty much there I do know of someone with a ramp but is only free the odd Saturday but he's getting harder to get in contact with lately :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott87 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Well here are the pics of the intercooler i got for 50quid Rated to 400hp so plenty for my build need. Been told that with stock na injectors 380 is probably the absolute best i could hope for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Also as many of you may be aware the dam bonnet on my car has been allowing water into the top section of the spark plug chambers and causing them to short giving me a misfire. With the bad weather coming i decided to have a crack at a solution to it. First i had to dry the spark chambers out with the other halfs hairdryer Then this is a pic of the 'fix' from the outside. I have sealed the very top and angled the sides to persuade water to run down past the front of the engine. Its galvanised steel so wont rust and i dont think it affects the visuals too much, but i will make a decision on bonet after i complete my na-t build.

Rich.2211 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Paint it black mate, will look much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve A Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Paint it black mate, will look much better Agreed . I'd also paint the mesh black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Paint it black mate, will look much better Yer the car is getting resprayed anyway after the conversion to na-t so i will mask the bonnet off and rattle can the the mesh and metal. Will do it tomorrow if i get chance. Will good rattle matt black take to galvanised steel or will i need to prime first as the plate isnt coming back off of the car again now. Tiger seal is mean!!!!

Homer Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Scott, that intercooler looks exactly the same as the one on my project car, it's tiny. Do you know what make it is? I'm thinking of changing mine but have no idea what it is, there's no stamp marks at all. Your one is the first I've seen that looks the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of changing mine but have no idea what it is, there's no stamp marks at all. Your one is the first I've seen that looks the same Yer it's made by wiltec. Supposed to be one of those subsidiary companies that gets products debadged but not too sure if that's true. Either way everything I read about them was spot on and can't complain for the money.

mattdavies Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I much prefer the Orange squares, I tinted mine so you can see them so easily and prefer them to the facelift ones !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 I much prefer the Orange squares, I tinted mine so you can see them so easily and prefer them to the facelift ones !! On a red car i think they just work better. I have clear sides but the front needs to be orange imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 Car been to Thor today to have the ecu fitted. All went well with the installation, however there is a misfire on the 6th cylinder when the ecu isnt bridged off. Pete is concerned that the ecu is faulty, but is going to check that the aem is passing out a signal to the injector on 6th cylinder and the stock ecu is running fine. So the car has been left overnight with them and they gave me a courtesy car for free He is going to do some work with an oscilloscope tomorrow to work out what is going on.
