June 7, 200420 yr my solution....get petrol engine diesel's will always be slower than their petrol counterparts of the same CC or even less
June 7, 200420 yr get a bleed valve, exhaust, filter, part from that you then need to start spending decent money
June 7, 200420 yr Author right...damn...oh well at least my car sounds cool now (got an induction kit although needs a lot more cold air ), what's a bleed valve?
June 7, 200420 yr Our PHASE ONE optimised performance uprating conversion can give up to 20% more power and torque with significantly more acceleration and pulling power from low speeds. The fuelling is optimised, so that there is only a small penalty in increased fuel consumption if the full performance gain is exploited. However, our fuelling control allows the options of running in ‘economy’mode when full performance is not required. This is controlled by a dash mounted switch. When in economy mode there can be a fuel saving of upto 15%. The PHASE ONE performance optimisation may also include a flow control valve to vary boost pressure to match the performance required. Normally we need your vehicle for 4-5 hours to install and setup the system. PHASE ONE performance optimisation fitted, tuned and tested (from) £100.00. Phase 1 Conversion - can produce up to 20% more power and torque With recalibrated fuelling and boost curves. Fitted tuned & tested. .. £125.00 Phase 2 Conversion - to supply and fit up rated intercooling system, together with refuelling and boost recalibration. 30% more power & torque. .. £495.00 Phase 3 Conversion - up to 45% increase in power & torque with 2-stage intercooler system, together with induction and free flow exhaust kits, fuelling and boost optimisation for max performance. .. £865.00 Magnetic fuel ioniser. .. £42.54 High flow air filter. .. £32.00 Boost pressure adjuster kit. .. £24.00 Boost pressure control kit. .. £35.00 Fuelling control kit. .. £38.00 Formula ZX1 special engine treatment (200ml). .. £14.00 Free flow high performance stainless steel exhaust. .. £285.00 Service exchange turbocharger. .. £385.00 Special build hybrid turbocharger (exchange). .. £485.00 Polished aluminium battery cover. .. £30.00 Aluminium power steering tank. .. £78.00 Water header tank. .. £78.00 Oil breather/oil catch tank. .. £68.00 (all prices plus vat) E-mail: Allard@AllardTurboSport.co.uk Tel/Fax: 01600 772527 www.AllardTurboSport.co.uk
June 7, 200420 yr Author riiiiiiiiiight..... you do know i'm meant to be going to uni in about 3 months? obviously you don't.... ah well might just stick with it and the in a few years time buy myself a 1.8 zetec engine to stick in it
June 7, 200420 yr a bleed valve makes the car think the turbo isnt building up enough pressure and makes it produce more, you dont want it producing too much tho as it may go bang
June 7, 200420 yr its a simple 10 min job. it goes on one of the pipes by the turbo, it would be worth getting a boost guage at the same time to keep a eye on the pressure. i might have one im selling.
June 7, 200420 yr Author ok cheers, how much is that then, there's a few valves on ebay for £none obviously i'm not gonna tell the insurance... is it noticeable change in power then?
June 8, 200420 yr you ever had your legendry TD rolling road tested? what's it putting out? Claimed BHP:62bhpActual BHP:92bhp120lbs Click Here
