Roll on summer and better days. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Tearney 47 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 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 Link to post Share on other sites

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.

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 Link to post Share on other sites
