my ginger GT Turbo

[markeyturbo]

cheers dude

raider is proving to be awesome... been driving it since 1st sept with no real issues or problems, just keeps taking the abuse that i give it.... lol

its not even that bad on fuel! i may have to sell it soon tho as i'm considering changing careers and there will be more travelling involved, hopefully not but i'll have to see how it goes  :?

not going to do much to the raider, its a bit of a work beater so dont want to end up painting it nicely or i'll be in the same boat as my orange one (eg. weekend toy) and i'd have to buy yet another car! lol

and also is the clio dash an almost perfect fit or do you have to tweek a lot

no its a custom colour, metallic orange with copper and gold pearl

hey markey lovin the carbon mate where did you get that kit from ? i can feel some carbon bits for my 5 and evo :lol:

its a mix of bits from different sources, should have some finished brake ducts in the next week or so

hey markey, i was wondering what wheels are on your car atm

none at the mo lol, the are ACE 239's i believe, but they are currently being refurbed for a slight update for this year

[markeyturbo]

mini update - will be able to post proper pics on sat once i get it back from carrera

its in having wheels redone, carbon canards on front bumper and few bits of paintwork touched up so its minty fresh again

this evening whilst it was in, replaced the rollcage and replace fogs for carbon ducts

[jayy.cfg]

what u doing with your old cage then ?

[LazaRs]

i'll have to dig out complete spec...

dished pistons
skimmed block and head to increase compression
modified combustion chamber but otherwise std head
balanced pistons, crank, L&b flywheel
std cam
VNT turbo running 14-27psi
TTS downpipe and K-tec side exit
volvo 440 clutch
MSM carb
CTD custom fmic intercooler to my design
CTD hardpipes
SFS hoses
aquamist water/methanol injection
close ratio gearbox from i think a R9 or R11
armtec limiter with flatshift

last dyno day made 217bhp and 256lb/ft torque.... with a std cam, manifold etc. etc.

have a CTM 293degree cam to put in next time she blows lol

Hi markey, just one quick quest.
You have mentioned that you got aquamist system on your GTT,
i was planning to get one to keep the temp. lower since i am building a car for the 1/4mile.. Do you reccomend them? Did you have any gains?
Thanks mate! regards!

[markeyturbo]

hey bud, i run a mix of 70% water 30% methanol in mine, to be honest it actually makes less power with the system on, but it does lower the temp of the intake charge, which reduces det, which makes it safer on big boost if that makes sense.
mine only switches on at 18psi so i dont use it for day to day running

i've got a DDS3 controller as well which is an amazing bit of kit, and if you get an aquamist definately get that to go with it

[markeyturbo]

wheel refurb (after my kerbing FAIL) now have inner rim orange as well











'x' rear cage and removed the 'fake' front half
