    cheers mate.
    basically rebuilt c16xe
    custom manifold, and flange.
    t2 renault 5 turbo for now.
    custom inlet maifold
    3mm laser cut spacer plate with 2 head gaskets making roughly 5mm space which put the compression down to about 130 irrc.
    running .6 bar of boost and seems to be doing fine.

    split a waterpipe on the engine and melted the headgasket the second week i had it finished, wasnt a happy chappy .

    hoping to get management next and if it all go's pete tong will invest in some low comp pistons but until then trackdays it is .
