fai17 Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 What Rotated fitting Kit you putting on, just purchased this for mines ? TWISTED TURBO UP PIPE/DOWN PIPE, FITTING KIT ROGER CLARK ITEM and seen a few other shinny Roger Clark stuff so had to get them two not the cheapest in the world but his car says it all...buy cheap buy twice my motto .. look forward to seeing it go..good luck when you expecting it finished ? why not go to Andy F not closer ?? Chris Andy doesn't map GEMS for clients so hensce he is going down south, Chris What we mostly try to do is buy the best product at the best price by shopping about but got to admit RCM has some great products and they do give discounts Have you decided on what turbo you are getting yet Chris as that can be very dependant on your engine build. when are you getting the car back?

sma01 Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 what turbo/ecu are you going to be using scott?i'm assuming simtek if your going to steve for a map,seems a long way to go for a map right enough.considering a 2.1 for future too,think an md321t would go reasonably well on it still got the gems ecu on it, may not be as good as some of the others being used mate, but it cost me about £2k back in the day and i cant really justify spending more changing it when there are other more important things to buy for the car, im pretty sure the ecu will do everything i need it to do, steves mapped the car a few times and is v good at what he does.... turbo wise its a gt3542 ive gone for, when i sat and thought about it, the gt42 that was on the car was overkill so i sold it.....

sma01 Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 He has a GEMS ECU JimBut a 2.5 with a T would be better...just ask andy i guess time will tell if the 2.5 would be better, from past experience i wasnt prepared to try it again.... Link to comment

Chris hold up is the rotated kit from rcm, they are using a new supplier and are having a few teething problems for the kits for newage cars, shouldnt be much longer though according to olly clark...fingers crossed.....once the turbo kit comes through then it will be full steam ahead, all the other bits are ready to be fitted.... scott Link to comment

When you expect to finish the build...will be good to see and watch and participate in a small track day in all these new builds when they come togeather, either at crail or knockhill think it will make a great viewing day for every one.. and a fantastic day for the car owners watching the end product for some of us... Hope your part comes soon... Chris Link to comment

Chris thanks mate, hope so too.... once the rotated kit arrives should only be a few weeks til its ready....cant wait to get it mapped and on the track... scott Link to comment
jasonb Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 thanks mate, hope so too....once the rotated kit arrives should only be a few weeks til its ready....cant wait to get it mapped and on the track... scott I cant wait to see how you get on Scott as your build will be well finished before my one!! my plan is to have the fully built engine next month but i wont be putting it in the car until july as i will be doing my gearbox and twin plate clutch at the same time along with some wee bits and bobs, just going to keep busy offshore and have very few days at home until then so i dont go crazy and just wack in the engine!!!! want to do it all properly so i dont go back thinking......i wish i done this and that!!! Total excitement knowing its all coming together though!!! Good luck with you run in etc.......and keep my posted on how things go Link to comment

RA Dunk Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Alan must be doing very well in buisness terms, theres a few of us on here and scoobynet all getting blocks built from him Link to comment
sma01 Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Alan must be doing very well in buisness terms, theres a few of us on here and scoobynet all getting blocks built from him agreed mate, he must be.....its easy to see why a lot of people are using him, service is first class.... Link to comment
fai17 Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 agreed mate, he must be.....its easy to see why a lot of people are using him, service is first class.... What inlet manifold are you going to use? Link to comment
sma01 Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 What inlet manifold are you going to use? u forgotten already?? got the new 1 that cosworth have developed, looks pretty good.... scott Link to comment
jimser Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 still got the gems ecu on it, may not be as good as some of the others being used mate, but it cost me about £2k back in the day and i cant really justify spending more changing it when there are other more important things to buy for the car, im pretty sure the ecu will do everything i need it to do, steves mapped the car a few times and is v good at what he does....turbo wise its a gt3542 ive gone for, when i sat and thought about it, the gt42 that was on the car was overkill so i sold it..... didn't realise you were using gems,can understand why you want to keep it at that outlay.35/42 is pretty big for a 2.1 should be interesting to see what kind of results you get with it. alan jeffrey does seem to have a very good reputation these days especially since he's not just a subaru tuner.looking forward to seeing all the big builds that are going on at the moment being completed i'll just be cruising along with 450/420 lol Link to comment
fai17 Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 i'll just be cruising along with 450/420 lol crusing in a 450/420 classic???...that a easy 11sec car Link to comment
jasonb Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 u forgotten already?? got the new 1 that cosworth have developed, looks pretty good.... scott Oh i.......this sounds interesting!!! come on let us into the secret Link to comment
fai17 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 u forgotten already?? got the new 1 that cosworth have developed, looks pretty good.... scott Haven't heard you talking about on here...Zen runs one on there Time Attack car and Sleepersy runs one too. Looks the dog bits and pieces When are you getting your car back? Link to comment

sma01 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Oh i.......this sounds interesting!!! come on let us into the secret someone tell me how to post pics and i will put a pic of it up, or pm me an email address if some1 can post the pic for me.... Link to comment
