Milans right, a lot of people stick au motors into xf/xe's and e series and turbo em. 4litre turbo sounds fun to me.

Hey Milan where did you get that alloy bracket for your bosch pump? Ive been looking everywhere for them!

cheers,

Nigel, try www.gcg.com.au and www.vpw.com.au, they have them. If your in Sydney, Motorsport Connections have them aswell. Are you looking for the VL size or 044 size bracket.

Thanks for that Milan, Gcg have the ones i want, the nice annodised alloy type. Im after the 044 type. Why do you ask, you have one youd like to sell?

Did you say your putting the gt35 onto your Escort? I was worried about making a gt30R spool up on my cossie! Any idea what boost you wanna run? 30psi range i imagine?

cheers, nigel

Nigel, i have 2 044 brackets and 2 vl brackets. I thought if you needed a VL bracket, i got a spare one, cause i was going to run the 2xVl pumps but now running the 044.

Yeah going to be running the GT35/66 on the Escort. Boost will be 30psi+ or what ever it takes to make the power i want. It's on nos and has an auto with stally so not worried about when it comes on boost.
(when i take the turbo off the xf for the Escort ill get a GT42 for the xf, im even looking into a BA motor, they are cheap these days)

haha a boosted BA motor in a xf would be awesome. I actually bought a bosch 910 (vl) pump for my SOHC motor but clearly that wont be enough now, looking to buy a 044... they are pretty cheap these days. Are you running one 044 or 2?

car has 2x044(Escort) not needed but has it anyways. One will be used for the nitrous system.

As for the XF, car is now running and needs to be tuned. its coming down on the 16th of this month or the week after. Finally

Here is a pic with the 18's off my brothers xe. IM gonna leave these wheels on until i get my own. 8)

I know your a nsw boy, but have you seen dave's green xe (MR250) from mk automotive? That thing has one serious turbo xflow in it. At the last dyno day i saw it at it made 420 odd at the wheels. he did pretty well at the last summernats too, in the top 20 for show cars i think.

Update - car now has a twincam motor in it...its only the n/a motor to get things going, i already have a xr6t motor at home which will be getting pistons and rods put in. Car is almost done, getting the custom plenum made now and got to get the computer wired in soon, should be done in a month or so.
