Roll on summer and better days. 1 Quote

Mark Tearney Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Almost finished my winter upgrades, Acquired a fully forged 1.8L Silvertop zetec with OJZ over bonnet exhaust system bought a new BGH Geartech E8 type 9 and a Quaife ATB diff. In Northampton motorsport today for a rolling road session and mapping to hopefully remove a flat spot and get it running to its full potential. Fingers crossed for some dry weather when I collect it tomorrow. 6 Quote

Expand I've left it with them over night and won't be collecting it until tomorrow sometime, hoping they can achieve around 220bhp and decent torque and get rid of a flat spot just before it hits 5k..it really comes alive after 5 but I want it checked over before I give it any real stick. Not really had the weather so far this year to put it to the test properly so once the engine is sorted I'll book up a few track days after a trip to Bedford to get a noise test. Quote

Expand Very pleased with the results, 210bhp (183 at the Wheels) and 154 lbft torque. Not bad from an old 1.8L Silvertop. Needed a new Fuel pressure regulator as the old unit was the cause of the poor running. Brilliant service from NMS and much less than I expected to pay out. The Westfield is now a new car, my first impression was pretty much F#$k me it's a weapon it just pulls and don't stop. 2 Quote

Regards Chris Expand It's certainly quicker lmao...need to put some miles on it now I've had semi slicks fitted to really get a feel for what it's capable of. Definitely need to carry out a noise test then I can get a track day booked. Quote
