stef's 205 gti6 supercharged

[Stef205]

not alot has happened with the 205 for a while. I took it to my local drift and drag event. The day didnt start to well even after the first run i was experiencing issues with the car. Luckily i had the laptop in the car did a quick log on the next run to discover i had a tps fault and i was over a second slower than my last run. Id gone from a heathly 13.7 to a 14.4 which was the best i was able to pull out of the car. Also to add to the fire the filter fell off the charger After that we called it a day.


I decided to treat it to a deep clean and a clay mitt after a hard day, I have to say i was very impressed with the out come of it.


I attended a local car meet at the haynes motor muesum, firstly i felt a bit out of place being mainly the only track car there. Never the less i muchly enjoyed my time there. Managed to get a few shots taken.





Ive also been struggling with a "non normal" noise coming from the charger, so i decided to strip it down and inspect. It appeared that the snout bearings have seen better days, luckily i had a set of bearings for the snout so that will be done over the next few days, along with a modified inlet pipe welded to the charger. This is how the charger stands atm. I found the insides very dirty with dust which raises consern of the filter.

gives some idea of the dirt!



Ive also been working on the next "installment" of the 205 which will be something that ive been trying to find for over a year now, finally i found a decent one which i snapped up straight away.



This is a m90 supercharger and is a ford gen 3 from a v8! the aim is more efficency and more boost. The charger will spin slower and provide more boost at a lower temp, and with bolt on and off pulleys i will be able to adjust the boost levels within reason.

all for now
