Haha, yeah...

1200rc here's some interesting reading if you're looking for some opinions on single and twin turbo setups.....although maybe it will just confuse and you shouldn't look!

twin turbo discussion

i got the motor sitting on the engine mounts bout 1/2 hour ago

i hacked up the front of the car for the intercooler, and as always found i cut more than i needed to but oh well ill get a bit more airflow

so now i just gotta hook everything up and install all the piping, put in fuel pump and relocate battery, anyone wanna come help????

but, i bought an air pod from super cheap today, and half way home i see this sticker on the pack "not for turbocharged cars", why would that be?, im guessing i need to buy one of the $100-160 ones dont i???

oh, and another thing, ive heard mixed views on the fuel pump, do i need a pump with more pressure than the boost i will be running, i.e. 12 pound of fuel pressure for 10 pound boost?????????, i have heard i do, but also that i dont, i have a 5.5psi fuel pump and plan to run the boost at 6 and 10 psi, will my fuel pump do?, or which one should i get

cheers fellas

cant wait to hear my car whistling up

then, boooosh hehehe

good now im inspired to go out and work on it again, was falling asleep

Hey 1200rc, If your looking for an igniton place, go and see the guys at Performance Igintons in Ringwood. I have a Turboed 1400 that I have been driving now for three years and have always had low down drive (low revs) problems. I was put on to them by a work friend of my Dad's and they made up a new electronic dizzy for me. It was out of a 200b I think and I go it from Datspares in Clayton for $100 with coil and module. They then machined it to fit the 1400 block and used a standard 1200 dizzy drive gear I supplied. It was then remapped and all I had to do was put it in, wire it up, set timing to 10 degrees and drive happily ever after. Their work cost me around $230ish and I have never had any problems since. I just drive it like any normal standard car. Mine is draw through carbi and in the past bogged down off the line all the time unless you gave it a hard time, but now it pulls away at around 1500-1800 revs. Give them a call and they will tell you what to get from a wrecker to help cut your costs down but its well worth the effort.

beautiful thats what i wanted to hear, i actually know a guy that will make a series 2 bluey elec dizzy fit an a-series, i still have to go pick one up off him for my rc but ill get him to make another one for the turb engine and go pay perfomance ignitions a visit

cheers dude
