I wonder how well the cold starter injector will work when on boostyou plumbed in and AFR gauge yet? hope your monitoring for det / knock aswell. I know you have lowered comp but standard ECU and standard injector's

i've no idea, but i've got snetterton next friday on a standard ECU and 7psi so should add some extra safety, switch opens the injector so should just flow 4bar fuel pressure through it on boost... i'll report back lolI wonder how well the cold starter injector will work when on boost
no AFR yet as its hardwired into the orange 5, will borrow an LM-1 on sat just to check and make sure its roughly right, but can't drive it legally until sat afternoon after the MOT and after i've taxed it
Cold start injector
Have you lowered compression at least ??
couple more pics of it during/after clean
yes, 0.5mm off piston face and a dish 1mm deep, and 4bar fuel pressureCold start injector
Have you lowered compression at least ??
Ah good, I think you should get away with standard timing
I don't know if the cold start will provide enough fuel for that 40-50% power increase.
A better budget option would be an MF2 and a pair of injectors a little upstream of the throttle. The cold start isn't going to atomise or supply equal delivery as well as additional injectors would.
the cold start is just a belt and braces until i get it mapped, then i'll get bigger injectors in and the ECU flashed to suit a s/c, and go from there. its only running 7psi so i'm not expecting a rocketAh good, I think you should get away with standard timing

little update, it had to fail mot on sat, but failed on OSR sill corrosion and OSF wheel bearing... not bad for an old shed.
bro has been busy welding, and last night i put on the GTT front struts and hubs complete with clio 16v brakes, and then lowered rear beam
pulled the NS bar out with a spanner and a bolt, unbelivable considering its age!
Awesome!
Especially the Krypton Factor sticker!
Nice sleeper
Nice one ButterBollox - really glad you've done this to the ol' girl. Very nicely done as usual.
Mega project! awesome for 3 n half weeks
thank u
its still in the workshop having a bit of welding, turns out that when it was repaired before they liked filler! all good in the hood tho, my bro is on the case and he's making repair panels from sheet metal
money is the only thing holding it up, after another bottom end as my pikey build is knocking under load, tbh its laster longer than i thought
this is cool
still not driven it properly yet due to lack of tax, and may have to sell it due to lack of funds
Did you manage to get this to run properly at all mate ?
What type of supercharger have you used ?
havn't driven it yet fella still needs tax, its all mot'd and legal apart from that, just need to pop it down the road to make sure it boosts ok now
supercharger is eaton M62 i believe, of a merc, from this months PPC cover car no less
little update...
bottom end was lunched so decided to swap it out for a new one, so engine out again
new bottom end in and built back up, just needs a few bits of plumbing in finished
then by complete luck, the worlds most complicated car exchange was discovered... so in 3 weeks the 11 will be going to a new home
basically, swapping the 11 for this....
which i have swapped for this....
which i've already swapped for this....
complicated, but so far so good... shame the 11 is going but i've still got the orange 5 for kicks, diesel for daily and now a 'ped too
that blue five is gorgeous!
blue 5 is nice where has that came from?
nice bike though saying that the clio looks nice too lol
Thats mine
that five was really smart mate why did ya get rid of it? and who owns it now?
He's still owns it mate as i've got some bits for it still, need to go give them to him soon so its ready for him
Yeah as Markey says I still own it mate, I lost my license for 12 months and gunna have driving without insurance and TWOC on it when I get it backIf all goes ahead me and Mark B will be doing a straight swap BUT the 11 is still insurance group 6 so am abit stuck really
insurance will always be a killer with TWOC, group 6 is alot better than 14 and turbo in the name tho lolYeah as Markey says I still own it mate, I lost my license for 12 months and gunna have driving without insurance and TWOC on it when I get it back
soon as markey has worked his magic lemme know 11 is back together now
you stole a car or is there a bigger story..... might want to clarify that being in a club full of car lovers.....
i'm pretty sure its part of the story, i'm sure he will explain if he wants too
Haha good shout Tony, my mrs at the time told me to take her car. She wasnt best pleased when I phoned her and told her i'd written it off though! So much so that she smashed my 5 up with a hammer (drivers window and windscreen & ripped the battery outNeedless to say shes not my mrs anymore.
Damn
Mark, i take it you are using the standard ECU? Who were you going to get to map it up?
james5 says there is someone on cliovalver that can reflash them for £150
Well someone there managed to go through the terminal clips, god knows how lol cut straight through them bothDamn
Sorry for the hijack Mark
Yeah ive been in touch and he seems very genuine. He has a website now too linked from the clio williams forum.
