exactly the response I expected tbh. I'm just not pretending it's as invaluable as it was any more and playing around with bits

I agree the sigma did look sexy as hell when it was all clean and polished up but now i'm of the opinion of "just drive it". Too many potholes and inconsiderate w*nkers f*cking up the hard work I put into making it shiny, now I don't care so much. Fair play mate, and good on you for doing what you want with it.

Nope  ITB's are still being built up, waiting on some bits and pieces being delivered to make the plenum. Been weighing up some new wheels too, undecided yet     ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

The only real work needed is a bit of metal resin filling and making a plenum. Manifold is hit and miss, the bodged "that'll do" way is to cut down the manifold, or the proper way is to get a nice custom made flanged one.Could do it in under a week if i didn't have other commitments. ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

Custom manifolds are expensive. i would just cut the standard one and have the injector holes filled in. metal resin filling and making a plenum? whats that? you can pick a set of r1 carbs up cheap enough and if they dont need much more money spending to fit them then i might get myself some then save for a remap of some sort as the bloke with the 406 sri is taking the p*ss now ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

There are sliders in the bodies that control the idle, a similar vacuum system to the AVAC one in the S16. The holes the sliders sit in need filling with metal epoxy and sanded down smooth to stop air leaks and you need to make something that the ICV and MAP sensors can attach to aka a plenum. basically 4 straight tubes going up from the injector holes on the itb's, to a housing on the top of them that the sensors fix to. Without that you'll get no idle when the throttle's shut and would run like a bag of crap.Check Yanni's thread, he explains it all in detail. ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |

Every conversion I have seen or heard of with a "bodged inlet" are rubbish. There are good gains to be had with a good one though. Not really liking what you done to the Ph1 mate, always thought without the rear spoiler it would look lovely but good on you for doing it how you want it, thats what its all about. ________________________________________ Ryan |

  Not long to go now. Just need to make up a pipe to complete the vacuum system, silicone the area under the idle sliders, make a plenum like Yanni's, modify a TPS and that's it! And yes, i know trumpets would be better. And so would a sausage filter. Accoustic pleasure ftw though ________________________________________ Bye bye Sundance Kid |
