the new look

[Bedworth]

Ye he did. And tbh touch wood not many so far. Only bit really needs tweeking in the fueling as its very very rich when i floor it and its not the best at cruising at low rpm all the time. Apart from that done 200 trouble free miles

[Bedworth]

Well have put quite a few miles on it now so decided it was safe to take it to the place i normally dyno the cars to see what the difference would be. Tbh i was expecting to run around 125-135bhp

Well after around 30mins or so we got in on the rollers after being "the worst car they had ever dyno'd" (same place that did my silver sporting aswell).

so got it into the rollers and it sat on the sills. So jacked the back up put some wood under and tried, was no good was sitting on anti-roll bar.

So then jacked upt up to raise the back of the ramp which ended up working well




Think it was very close




and here are the results -




an impressive 162bhp and 200lb ft torque.

As said on fb mate .. this is impressive!

[punto1.2]

Very impressive mate what engine is it? Just a standard 1.2??

I know it's turbo I meant a 1.2

[mjjgt]

I'll be honest at first i thought all that effert for not much gain but 162 is great from a 1.2 well done impresive

[shorty]

With munkul building it had to be something good. He is a very good chap. Liking the Punto matt!

[bradleyboy]

what turbo is that??... and it looks like it spools quite early on the 1.2 engine thats impressive mate

[Bedworth]

thanks people, its a garrett 1549 iirc off a mg/rover diesel. You can hear the turbo come in around 2k but after 2.5k is when you know it has kicked in lol.

And yes it is basically a 1.2 8v engine with 866cam. Need to add a few other bits to it when i get time then new manifolds and stuff getting made over winter so might get more power out of it once i decide on what ecu system to choose

[bradleyboy]

u legend lol

[gt1-jamie]

The flow rate on the lower spec engines is much better aswell brad, x flow heads etc
