306 S16, In various spec's

[miles]

A very long winded project this one, some of you know it as I've had the car around 7 years now buying off a mate from London with a dead bottom end to replace my old 309 Race car

I'll add a proper description as I go along but some pic's to start with

First off how it started with a fully stripped car and mild spec engine, Steel Rods, JE Piston's, Head and some Kent cams with mere pin hole 45mm bodies



Then



Much better and allot Lighter being 50's

Engine on the stand, new spec is basically

Sanex Rods
JE Pistons
Mad Pete Head with larger inlets and flowed nicely (I hope)
Solid Lifters with Cat cams 4903272 with a huge 13.75 lift
Extra Long Inlet manfold
Renault Pico Injectors
Vibration free complete engine balance and weight matching
Omex 600 ECU with full throttle shift



Beam with 21mm Bars and a 30mm ARB, Xsara rear arms



Then onto the box, The most hybrid box ever I think, with BE1, BE3 and BE4 parts to make a nice C/R box with a 4.9 CWP complete with a very stiff Plate Diff



The onto the modded SD cage so I can fit Harness bars, Never liked fitting them to the shell behind the seat after this

---

Exhaust manifold now in production after test fitting on mine





And as it is now, almost complete

Absolutely LOVE that exhaust manifold, just a thing of beauty!

This is such an awesome project man! been following it on the '6 forum; when you getting it mapped?

[miles]

It's got a running in map, just need to do another 100 miles in it yet, Then off for a full power map, so in a couple of weeks all being well

[Tyronnster]

Are you miles from 306gti

[Scott]

TBs and cams FTW!

Well part 1 of the mapping complete, Power figures will follow but happy with the torque at 185 ft lb's at 6000rpm, Limiter is at 8500 so she does go well now, just some different parts to try, trumpets, Injector position, Cam timing to go for the power but it will get me out for next weekend which is the main thing after so many years

[Jonny b]

I seriously love this car! What power you hoping from it?

How much are the manifolds?

[miles]

It's being done in stages, Test day Sunday so I'll see how it goes then, As over the winter a steel crank will be fitted and some more work, Maybe different cams again to nude the 300bhp mark, Will be able to go over 9000 rpm then.

But around the 250 mark is what the cams are good for, So if I change the timing, Trumpet lengths etc we will see a increase as we ran out of time with 15 hours on the Roller's it's not cheap even at mates rates

See's getting polished up by a mate on Thursday



So it will get back to being like this

Looks sooo savage
