As you can see, doing things right and putting effort in gets results. There is no quick way around it.

Indeed the effort is worth it! It is sort of a 950kg 'medal' made of metal.[88][:x)][:x)][:o)]...Costing its weight in gold[:0]

Just enjoying driving the car basically every day. It is an absolute blast.[88]
NSW CFC13 is on this weekend. It has been a while since my RS2000 has attended.[:0] I have sorted all of the 'teething' issues and any weak links have been resolved.

She is absolutely awesome to drive. Traction is an issue on some occasions, but she drives beautifully around the corners and brakes very well. I have had a few fellow Cossie and Small Ford enthusiasts along for a ride; the tales told and big grins say it all.
There have been many requests for RS to have a go of the ¼ mile. I do not expect a low ET/60 foot, but am definitely interested in the final velocity achieved.[;^)] Next on the agenda is to complete a track day and get some driving hours out of this engine.[:p] I am heading back to the Dyno and will fit the Vernier cam pulleys and see if we can get more mid range and if there is more useful boost available. The previous session was plagued with the waste gate opening.

Should trap a decent mph, 110-115.

Got any vids so we can hear the motor??

Would be mad to see 115-118mph with this turbo....Just need to get to the dyno and see if there is more to be gained. I think the turbo will give up if pushed much more, it is running out of its efficiency and mass flow capabilities. I'd like some life out of it[:I]
No vids to post[:0]

You will need to pull 7000rpm across the line in 4th to run 118mph with your tyre size and diff ratio...definately possible gearing wise[;^)]
