Got new AP coilovers to pick up tomorrow.
New beam off known to me low mileage motor.
New low mileage engine, gearbox and a complete donor vehicle.
Should be mechanically sound and ready for MOT at end of the month.
Not going to bother with bodywork as I am a builder and it is basically treat as a van all week and will always look a slag no matter how much i spend/waste on it so performance is all i'm vainly chasing.
New exhaust elbow (bigger)on the way and should see a bit more boost.
Only getting 20PSI out of the TD04 before the smoke kicks in badly. I think it needs to breath out better than the K14 exhaust elbow will allow.
Any body have any advice on this? Feel like I should be getting better power than I am. LDA ground and Gov is shimmed,checked throttle pedal for travell and it seems to be hitting the gov mech at full throttle so seems right? Should I see any more boost from a 9mm TD04 set up? I'm sure there's more to be had.
Cheers,Danny.
