The Turbo Beast Runs!!!!!

Post by MatBat » Wed Jun 06, 2007 6:02 pm

Well, I pushed the starter button at 4pm, and she started first time!

VERY noisy as the exhaust needs a "slight" modification but she's running, no oil leaks, and all 'seems' good so far. I wound the ignition timing right back and went for a gentle drive around the block. Gutless as hell due to the timing and I didn't push the engine at all, but sounds awesome with the wail just under the bonnet vents.

I get the exhaust sorted tomorrow and I've just upgraded to a 3 wire O2 sensor. First trip from there is around to Biff's house to give him his drill bits back :twisted:
