good results Andy :smthumbup should be even better on the road
The TB was cheaper than having my OEM one upgraded to 65mm.great spool!
what made you decide on a big TB, while using the standard IM?
didnt you port the runners to match it to the gasket, except for the last 1mm? wouldnt it be better to match it completely?
Deffo mate if it all works out ok! I hope there will be nowt in it when on full chat compared to yours (i was shocked by yours a little if i'm honest). I'd be well happy with that. Similar weight and same gearbox so should be a decent comparo if there is one. :thumbup:Good news mate, looking well... be sure for a run out when its finished..
:smthumbup
I'm sure it might........ if only i could drive :lol:That would be great at Elvington mate.
Proberly be more i would have though, with the combination of headwork, TB, cams and that tubby, sounds good!Deffo mate if it all works out ok!

Not yet as it's early days, need to get a good solid base from the dyno and then do a "road test".:thumbup: looking good andy.my motor is alive again green hta with 2.3 ,should be a nice spool :crackup:do you have any graphs mate ?
I think the S205 is a tough one to beat in the upper rpm torque if i'm honest (Specially now they seem to have done some upgrade on themProberly be more i would have though, with the combination of headwork, TB, cams and that tubby, sounds good!![]()
Hope all go's well mate, deserve it bud:smthumbup
Lend me the keys. Phil Sparky's car won there so yours will **** it.:lol:I'm sure it might........ if only i could drive :lol:
You know for a moment there i almost considered thinking about it :lol:Lend me the keys. Phil Sparky's car won there so yours will **** it.:lol:
Good point, the S90 is very cheap.The TB was cheaper than having my OEM one upgraded to 65mm.
I stopped at 1mm from the inlet gasket only really on the bottom of the runners because 1. I left it too late and ran out of time. 2. The ported head is exactly matched to the inlet manifold gasket and i didn't want any chance of a lip or turbulence in the wrong direction.
Stuck with the standard'ish intake manifold as it is to be a road car and i want to retain as much low to mid range as possible and have not seen one test to convince me that on my set up i need to do more than i have on the intake.
The standard inlet manifold has been proven as extremely hard to beat as an alrounder.

Paul at Evolution Solutions needed to weld and beef up all the way around it to get it fully ported out to match the 70mm TB.Good point, the S90 is very cheap.
Did you have to weld on some aluminium on one side of the IM to be able to port it to the full 70mm?
How far into the runners did you port?
Looking forward to more results from your car, good work! :coolsm:
