None of the engines I've built has ever gone bang... except one which I helped build which died of simple oil starvation - which is a known weak point on the PRV when the car's on a track being driven hard. Race prepped ones are dry sumped.
Rich J is not one to blow his trumpet but his twin turbo is decidedly rapid now, but he is always pressed for time and there's always work to be done. He was driving it every day for a while during the summer. Tony, you are entitled to your opinion, but you don't know what I'm working on.

It won't be done for a while yet, it's actually a lot more than just an engine upgrade.
Lots of pictures to come within the next couple of weeks if all goes well. If I remember when I get home I'll post a picture of an impressively bent trailing arm bolt to be getting on with. :)

Always like to see pics of car bits
I had bent trailing arm bolts but weren't too bad to replace... NickT |
