Productive morning!

 

Ryan, even though he is stuck in Turkey due to heavy snowfall, kept our agreed appointment this morning for a little bit of remote base-map-tweaking! What a legend ;)

 

The car is now lovely to drive off boost, and the idle issues I was seeing are all resolved, so cheers Mr.G!

 

Roll on the arrival of the turbo kit next week!

After a loooong day, in the pissing rain, wrapped a home made poncho of bin bags and gaffer tape, the cams are in and shimmed!!

 

HKS 256/264 Stagger cam combo- Had these for 2 years almost.

HKS Type 2 Cam Pulleys- Had these for 3 years waiting to go on!

 

I must say HKS cams FTW! Almost didn't need to shim them... 1/24 wasn't in tolerance. I shimmed a load anyway to get them as close to perfect as I could.

Seeing as Lee's posted the pictures! This is the new SRD Turbo Kit in all it's glory.

 

Specs of My Kit:

 

-6266 CEA Billet Turbo

-Twin Scroll SRD Manifold

-HKS 60mm Wastegate

-Open Screamer

-3"DP

-4" Intake

 

I'll be writing a full review at the weekend, so far the experience of fitting has been exceptional. Incredibly comprehensive kit, with all the minor details that most other kits lack accounted for. A really excellent effort for a first turbo kit from Lee.

 

It's also very customisable, Lee will cater to whatever power/spec you want. I added a DEI Turbo blanket and an EGT sensor on top of my kit.

 

Here's my kit being prepared for shipping:

Looks lovely James! We have also gone for one of Lee's kits. Similar spec but we've gone for thr 6466 GEN2 and a 4" downpipe.

 

The manifold is beautiful.

 

Indeed young christoph! ;) I was tempted by a 4" DP.... For the apool enhancement properties. The I remembered when I had a boost logic for a week.... Never again! Too loud. You might find you need a valve to shut it down when cruising, gonna drone like mad on an auto!

 

Agreed, the manifold is finest car porn!

Dads getting deaf In his old age anyway ;) he wont hear it!

I'm expecting it to be very loud. Will have to see how we get on. I think Dragonball is going to be even louder this year especially with a 4 mile tunnel :D

Look forward to seeing a first start up video :).

I like a bit of a drone as it blanks out Chris's music- mind you I can't wait to hear it on chat in that 4 mile tunnel on Dragonball.

Looking forward to your results when you have fitted the kit
