Time to put my cards on the table.

Not to forget Sabine in the Diesel Transit on The Ring

That was a good top gear episode that one, we used to have a transit mk6 and mk7.
But it wasn't as quick as that one tho.
She's just amazing behind the wheel.

It took JC 3 days to get the time he did in the Jag, with Sabine training. (I did a 10.27 the second time on with the F)

If I could have her directing me I would take the ZTT.

That would be good to see, Supercharged and ready for action.

Just waiting for Kieth now with the hybrid and how much its going to cost.
If I plan ahead I find what I'll need, I can start saving proply.

Turbo charged hybrid that kicks ass.

Just done a bit reading will the camshafts have to be upgraded as well.?

Just got an email off Kieth and this is what he said.


Hi David,


Some facts about your turbo,


A compressor wheel mod will be about £ 450.00 to £ 650.00 and an extra £ 150.00 for a billet wheel mod, this makes the turbo spin easier.
To enlarge the exhaust side as well will be an full cost of about £ 770.00 but enlarging the exhaust you will have a slower spool up.


A compressor wheel mod will give you about 30 Bhp more
A full mod will give you about 60 Bhp more


I personally think that the way to go will be the compressor mod with uprated injectors and a remap. I would estimate that the total cost will be
about £ 1200.00 to £ 1500.00.
I would need the vehicle for about a week.


Have a think about it and let me know your thoughts.


Thanks,
Regards,
Keith


Its looking good folks it really is.

I've just messged him back and 100% it will be fully uprated.
Just trying to search for a firm that can do one for our cars.

How much is all this going to cost??

[Lord Hybrid]

Think I might have to give dreadnought garage a call, can't seem to find any uprated gearboxes for our cars.

There some for the KV6 1.8 k-series and the V8, otherwise can't seem to find one for the CDTI model, unless I look at the BMW side of things.

Regards to suspension, does anyone have recommendations on where to shop for them.?

What am trying to do is calumniate how much I need save for that target.
Then work out my bills and also how much I earn in a week and convert it to a monthly thing.

Like to plan ahead at the same time, learn more about the engine and your input and information.
I can do this and enthusiasm is improving everyday.



Its just a damn good car and looks the part and I'm confident it will do well.

I doubt bmw would be any use with gearbox as all rear wheel drive!
