White car is poorly again. I took it to Silverstone Garage as there wasn't much I could do to troubleshoot, turns out it's an 'exhaust misfire' rather than an engine misfire. Suspected sticky valve, which would be a head off or engine swap (apparently an engine swap would be cheaper!) so I may just end up flogging the car.. we'll see!

Welcome to the club Animal. :p

 

I picked mine up today. Seems to run OK, I want to get it on a Dyno as it doesn't feel all that powerful (I might just be used to it). The steering is a lot heavier than it was, possibly something to do with the fact I now have a Facelift engine and ECU.. :search: I'm not sure I like it.

Hello,

 

Just joined the group. :)

 

I am modifying an N/A engine, and have started an album in my profile of work completed so far. :cool:

 

The engine has done 60k and it is usual for around 20 of the horses to have escaped by this time, so assuming a start figure of around 200bhp.

It would be nice to get her up to 280, which would be 300 on a new motor.

However, it is my everyday car and want to gain economy also, so focussing modifications on efficiency.

 

I will update the album as I go, want her on the rollers before Christmas. :carwash:

 

Feel free to take a peep. :search:

 

David
