How much you after Gareth and what size?
Was running @ North Weald
they are 205 50 16 smallest 16 they do ill pm you pics tomorrow and you can make me a offer
Oh and on a sidenote, I have just ordered a solid lifter double valve spring cylinder head, so I can run 2bar of BOOOOST lol
Going to be going back in for mapping as soon as its done. Think my air filter is suffering massively from heatsoak, so that is getting moved, going to try and have it poking out the front bumper, not by much but just very subtely.
Got MOT in the next couple of weeks.
I am in the process of ordering all the bits i need to have an Ally rad fabricated by a friend of mine, core size is 300x670x78, so that should see my heat issues sorted out.
Thanks to Mr Baxter for pointing out my wheel wobble on the strip at PVS, I have since welded in another 2" Box section in front of the other and stitched them together, it is solid as feck now to put it bluntly. Chucked it into a sharp bend today at about 70 and it just went straight round it, whereas it would have dived in a bit before.
Thanks very much, Ill have think as these may foul my arch. Pleae send pics though!Quote:

they sound good to me.
I wont be at pod this weekend.
The inlet has gone in to have a couple of bits done to it, awaiting the new cylinder head from SBS.
And this is my new side project so to speak:
Still having trouble with overheating, so I bought a large intercooler, cut the boost pipes off, going to have a 5mm ally plate welded over there, and then my radiator fitting where i require them.

So your replacing the rad with a ic, that should work yes.
But i've gotta say i'd look in to why you have such a prob with heat, when others have no probs...
I think its just the turbo sits so cose to the rad, its fine when driving along, its just s soon as i hit traffic...
What does it get to on the gauge? Can you fit another fan on there? It is ucking the air yeah? Not blowing, i know its stupid.
not going down to pod either as fenny's car went tits up :cry:
what have you had done to the cylinder head buddy, sound like a good plan with the rad lol
have you sorted that ******* cross member out yet ??? :thumb:
What happened to fennys?Quote:

either the relife valve was stuck open on the oil pump an cause the big end to heat up or the end caps on the road were on the wrong way round, either way its trashed :cry:Quote:
