Fitted a 3071 shaft to my current housing just to test it on the dyno

that planning to go in order to check the duty cycle on the injectors,

might go higher on advance timing too as its only at 12 degrees are there now,

headphones/etc will tell..

 

Not trying to squeeze it out,thats why didnt go to an actual turbo replacement,

just to help it breath out better+the shorty ex can in addition with the

3.62 diff thats on now,as with the 3.92 couldnt get it unleashed.

Great car! Is the engine a GM/Opel/Vauxhall 1.6L turbo or the GM Ecotec 2.0L turbo?

[westy turbo]

Thanks!,its a pre ecotec c20xe 87' , filled in with turbo parts.

[westy turbo]

small autocross as you might call it,good chance to see how it was running with the

3.62 diff as it was with 3.92 , way better know as it puts down power for being longer

ratio,

Wow if you mess up and hit one of those tire stacks instead of a small rubber cone your day of fun sure would be bad.

Car looks like it really can get the power down very well from the video.

[westy turbo]

True about the tire stack....as far as the grip was on michelin slicks,

airline had huge amounts of dust that came up all the way from Africa,

so 0.45 bar felt ok as i was my first run after 3.5 months with both forearm/wrist bones brocken....

[westy turbo]

Went to 87 lb injectors few months back as couldn't raise the boost more than 1.1 bar and had some really nice figures,no other changes except taking off the actual can and fit a straight kinda say pipe...

Just to share few pics with the new color,painter was feeling like lets change it a "bit" so couldn't resist the offer...its an aprilia bike Perl flat color which didn't think that i will like that much+ finally got racing plates so outside change to celebrate it :hurray:

[xcarguy]

Just to share few pics with the new color . . . . . aprilia bike Perl flat color . . . .

 

The color combo is stunning. Well done! :cheers:

[Kitcat]

It's a"mean machine"!

[Croc]

I really do quite like that color!

[scannon]

That is one bad ass lookin track weapon!

[My Seven]

You have one fine looking Westy.

The color is great.

With the high power of this car, do you have much wheel spin with these tyres?

What is your track tyre pressure?

[TurboWood]

Definitely a mean looking 7. I like the mudflaps.

[westy turbo]

Thank u all guys! the Michelin a great tire and by the time they heat up,they are awesome! using 18psi cold,but on a slow track like the one on the pics, they don't have the time to heat up....either going on Hoosiers,or to Kumhos ecsta that i had them in the past and they perform fantastic!

[Torqueman]

Wow, jetfighter grey Looks good Aris!
