Update!

Fuel system is almost completed.

- Aftermarket Industries SP 1200 using 2 of the possible 3 Walbro 460's.

- Speedflow 200 series black braid hose. -10 all round with a -12 breather.

- Had a fuel hat spun up to accept the factory rubber.  (This is away getting machined up to accept the fittings ATM).

- Ethanol sensor in the return line which has a bypass around it. The by pass has a 1 or 2 psi one way valve in it to push as much fuel through the sensor.

- Hypertune rail which got annodised black.

- Bosch 1700 cc injectors.

- 3 X Fuelab 828 series (5 inch long element) fuel filters. 1 is a 40 Micron pre surge tank, the other 2 are 6 Micron in parallel post surge tank.

Got the reground HKS V-Cam back. It started life as a 264 @ 8.7 mm. Duration at 50 thou was 222.xx. It's not a "270 ish" @ 10.25 mm. Duration at 50 thou is 229.54. The Unigroup "260" at 50 thou is 232.34, so a little more agro. That has 10.85 mm. The Base circle went from 32 to 30.1 mm on the modified V cam camshaft.

Unigroup left, V cam right.

Unigroup left, V cam right. You can see the different sizes of the nose between them. Totally different, not to mention all the oil gallery machining going on in there.

Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

Sweet looking fuel setup.....as usual for you overkill is the name of the game!

this is going to be a very scary car when it hits the road!

Means I'll NEVER have to revisit it again. Done!

Some finger from arse removal is required here.......:bomb_ie:

Can't get into Insight until Feburary.

Haven't spoken to Dennis this week. Hopefully the PS res, the airbox and gate lines are on the to do list.

Gearbox is back out of the car. I wish I knew this before I put the gearbox in, but for those who buy an OS88 in the future, make sure you sort out the breather fitting. They silicon the fitting in and with a little bit of heat the fitting pops out. It makes sense why it was spewing oil out on the dyno and on the road! Box is at Award getting sorted. So, a "cover" on the inside over the breather hole, a tapped thread for the breather fitting so it won't come out. Scott also wants to run a Mercedes Benz gear position sensor so that will go in now. GRRRRR!!!!!

Ross CAS kit was ordered last week.

Godzilla motorsport ignition kit ordered this arvo. Thats another two items off the list.

      Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy

      Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.

      Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷

      I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
