some may recognise from another forum but I really miss my old 306 so thought id sign up and see whats happening.
some may have seem this car on another forum but heres a few pics anyway. currently sat in the garage since October, need to pull that finger outa my bum n crack on with it, needs some welding and some extra work, which will be clear later in the post, so decided to pull it apart n do a full resto!
16v engine
[url= ] [/url]
then banded steels
gt25 turbo, did 202bhp apparently but after a rolling road I was disappointed with 170bhp. this is when I fell out with it!!
then in January this year, finally got in touch with chipwizards n tweeked the map, increased the boost to 14psi and also, still on the stock ecu, she made 250bhp and 271lb.ft. stock engine with arp rod bolts and 1mm decomp!
on the way home the release bearing went through the pressure plate so crashed it all the home. just acquiring parts for a full on rebuild and resto!
oh and built this as my daily till its done!!

That is sweet-as.
I clicked on this thinking "If this turns out to be a turbo- diesel I'm gonna be pissed"
Glad I wasn't disappointed
