Mickeybbb WROTE: "im at about 20% Got almost all i need, except time, and another vehicle to drive as a daily.." when i first turbo'd my car it was a daily 2,.. everyday i came home i'd pull the extractors of and mount up the turbo manifold and keep at it makin bits till it was time to have dinner, then put the n/a manifold back on... pulling it on and off just gets easier :) |

since gettin the bike as the daily to work and back, the micra will be in the garage till june so i've got that as a time frame to get it all sorted out
if i can get my shiz together with the turbo conversion then i'll do that at the same time. painting the car will take the backseat as i'd rather have a quick reliable turbo'd micra than a stocky with awesome paint that some pricks gonna key anyway (as i lose my work garage this year :( :( :( |

fred WROTE: "take some holidays, get it done, mickey, I remember snoopy's kit, it was fantastic..... " Thanks fred. I put alot of time & effort into building that kit. Alot of thought went into making boost early (to make it nice & fun to drive), with a turbo that could easily support more power if I wanted (it was high flowed to suit running 14psi+ by the guy I bought it off). It was just a shame the manifold wasn't made better (thats what I get for not doing it myself)If it hadn't cracked I probably would never have pulled it off. |

fred WROTE: "wow... another supercharged micra, thats 2, in the universe!" i quizzed david (whiteknight) for sometime, while getting bits...so without his help, it would have been a hell of a lot harder. |
