picked up my car on friday after having a 1.8t convertion....

heres a few pics until i have time to put more up...

Looks like a tidy conversion ..

verry nice mate,looks the nuts how much did it cost if you dont mind me asking

6/7k or something wasnt it?

i saw this in TSR when i was having my tracking&camber done.

tasty

Does look pretty tidy indeed

What spec is it?

You`ll have 1.2 corsas beating you at the lights in the wet still a painfull experience i went through

Unless of course youve attepted to sort out traction side of things?

Wooo I'm hoping to do this.. But 6/7K

Is it slow then??

Sleeper!

JESUS! 6/7k... fork that! id be buying something else

oh it's the bam too, good stuff, 225bhp still? or is it mapped too? guessing around 280bhp? that's what i'm aiming for with my 9n conversion, but it goes into the 9n alot easier than the 6n2!

Very nice. Hope you have some of your budget saved aside for front tyre replacements

its the bam 225 engine with a costom code remap....should be between 260 and 280bhp.

and yeh....traction is pretty shit in the wet lol, but its part of the fun if you ask me.

Looks almost stock mate. Nice!

yeh, they charge around that, but depends what else you add on. i paid a different price because i went for hi-spec brakes, and a forge blow off/diverter valve, and a full custom exhaust system.

look forward to seeing yours dude!

so I've got a new recirc valve, big fmic, zorst....i might be going for a K04 now too as it could fit better

what brake setup are you using?

do you use msn? pm me your address
