I just had a little sex wee.
that is one hell of an engine a true credit to you Sooty,
Needs a WR1 now his WRX300 is sold Or a spec D
This is a picture of the engine before these latest mods so you will be able to compare things,the old turbo,up-pipe,down pipe,headers,fuel pump,inlet manifold,induction kit, dump valve are all being changed on this up-grade,the dump valve will be fitted into the intercooler pipe,an air-injector kit will replace the 3 port boost solenoid. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.
Wow
Your always one step ahead of everyone else Chris. Quality work from RCM, loving the wing box never seen anything like that before
Loving the work your having done to your engine chris,
Look forward to seeing this in the flesh, Focus ST's rule!!!
Just got the alternator polished by Terry,a friend of mine,not the best picture but it looks like chrome. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.
Matt Clark has just had a couple of custom made hoses finished for the car,one is for the header tank and the other for the intercooler to the turbo,Matt rang me tonight to say it should be ready by the weekend,I will pop up tomorrow to get some more pics,not long now.......
Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.

These are the custom hoses made for the car. The hose was shaped to wrap around the wheel arch taking hot air back to the front mount. Fuel lines taking shape all braided and covered with nomex to keep heat away. Car should be ready in the next week or so,just in time for its winter hibernation. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.

Alternater now in place. New intercooler pipe just back from powder coating,the dump valve will be fitted in the pipe,the same as the Gobstopper. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.
The lightweight pulleys and oil filler cap have been stripped and are being nickel plated.

Not long now,intercooler pipes all powder coated......
The Tial dump valve is now fitted into the intercooler pipe Air injector kit to control boost more accurately than the standard 3 port boost soleniod. Cold air box now painted 23G,to blend in and look more OEM,but remember this is RCM. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.
fook me...that is some work gone into this...
do you have a fully built engine too? Might as well just make an offer for the 'other' RCM car and paint it 23G...might be cheaper! love to see what you get outta it when its being dialled in...you using Motec?
Yes,the engine has forged rods,pistons,bearings,ported/polished heads,wrc valves,motec M800 pro,you name it ,its got it. Heaven can wait....I'm playing with my scooby.
