Have you ordered the 2.1 from alan yet Martin?

yes only took 6 weeks instead of promised 10 day build just need to get it fitted mapped run in then mapped again lol

Hi Martin....i remember your car well coz of the plate.

I take it you still have that car and its the rear suspension that is clunking?

yes still got that car getting murtaya as weekend toy/drt

rear suspension clunking on potholes etc had same at front and got revalved prior to trip but 5 laps of the ring and rear started clunking typical lol

murtaya is running a month behind schedule but should be 2.1 engine tuner stoker with type r gearbox and simtek mapped by steve simpson,standard td05 turbo so 340bhp +/- methanol=3.5 to 60 and 8 ish to 100 i9n 2 seater 4wd blue-of course-sports car

Hello Martin...what did you drive back then as it was so so so long ago?

I hope you well with the Engine Tuner build...i've heard really good reports about both Alan and Martyn

it was a tsl modded blobeye think i had private plate on m333 tsl,now deciding whether to rebuild ast or get new bc coilovers as decidely clunky at the rear after recent trip to ring

martin

depending on price ferodo ds2500 pads for ksport 306mm front pots

martin

looks great peter,i met you at glenshee meet several years ago and as you can tell by my username i should be getting a murtaya with a 2.1 stroker from engine tuner so not as much engine work as you but a lot lighter lol

martin

no murtaya due to paint probs by the look of it but will bring my blobeye down hopefully

martin

typical of town and county selling rebuilt engine at top price unfortunately

martin

is that just not properly tied down??

martin

i had similar and turned out to be the rubber seal around boot

martin

superb

martin

andy has emailed me saying 20g should have minimal lag and not really different to 18g except more power so will have re think-i need to get the car made first lol

martin

i have a afp 20g, with a few other tweeks incl; gruppe s headers and up pipe, standard top mount.

made 405bhp on 10% meths and NF mix

Now on straight V-power and running about 380bhp

as far as spool, i make 1.5 bar of boost at 3400rpm

I ran a 18g before the 20g, the 20g has much more mid range punch / pulls all the way to you need to change gear,

always thought the 18g ran out of puff-that is interesting to know-still thinking options through

Yes it should be great in your car. I had a look round them up at the motorfair. Was yours there or was the white one the demonstrator?

mine is awaiting engine from engine tuner then iva so should be june

white one is a 240bhp lightweight sprint one while black one was bitz built one

martin

he still offers them when i phoned him a while ago,hopefully getting steve simpson simtek co-creator to map it so in a light car with fmic i really dont want much lag hence 18g vs20g

martin

thinking of putting andy forrest 18g on my murtaya anyone running one would 20g be more laggy or more depedent on mapper and is 400bhp possible with 10%methanol??

thanks

martin

ps have posted on scoobynet as well lol

i see stracathro petrol station is no longer shell so no v-power anymore

martin

skye is lovely i worked there for a month a few years ago when i lived in dundee so good long trip-creelers near broadford does a very nice gumbo

shame i had the trackmasters eurocombo or i would have come along

martin

ps nice gt-r mmmm

turned up on sat with wife and kids in tow-torrential rain so had a nosey around had a chat to tom and bitz motorsort then went home via pizzahut in dundee

i have not seen rain like that at knockhill for a long time-i was totally soaked and several cars in carpark had to be towed out!!

martin

bitz are building their demo and it should be at motorfair on sunday hopefully

my scooby reg is m*** tsl on a blob eye and has been at alford a couple of times an i was at glenshee run in 2005

murtaya will be 2.1 stoker by engine tuner just deciding between tdo5 or s206 turbo at moment lol it will be road spec but due to hassles from vosa may get a loan of the white sprint version

martin

hi i am martin and normally attend the national day at alford with my tsl modded newage sti,thought i would actually join up having loitered around long enough lol.

this year should be attending alford in my murtaya if vosa pull their fingers out re sva/iva
