Elroy's ' big turbo' build, part III

[Elroy]

i think people hear the word proxes and think they're track tyres because the r888 is a proxes. i'm using federal RSR thanks to slims advice and they are awesome!

Yes, you'll need good tyres now

[worthingcaddy]

I never saw the catch can? What was that about

[regcheeseman]

Bit of damn good engineering is what the catch can was all about.

This has gone a bit quiet... What's next?

[Elroy]

Sorry, nope there's Develoments happening.

Roll cage over winter, I'm currently looking for reasonably priced t45 tube
Source some slicks
Connect all nitrous and source some more jets from the states
Replace piston rings and gap them narrower, as I'm sick of every fucker saying ' my engines of fire'
New boost solenoid
Make a removable nitrous bottle holder for the bed

[worthingcaddy]

elaborate on the piston rings elroy? i don't know about piston ring gaps, why would that make it on fire?

[Elroy]

When I bought my wiseco pistons, it came with a chart for gapping the rings.

[Elroy]

I gapped mine for circle track/ drag race and apparently by the smoke bellowing out.... they're to big. The blow by through the rings is massive.

[Elroy]

Little update people, I now have a form of launch control.

[13]

Nice. U haven't updated much, been doing any work?

[Elroy]

Not really, just been trying to sort this launch control out. I’m removing my interior after this weekend, to install a roll cage over winter

[13]

What kind of bender do u have?

[Elroy]

What kind of bender do u have?

That’s fucking personal you Cnut

[dirtbikedave]

[skip0pot2mus]
