[quote="miki4"]What's the matter of putting 8 injectors on a standard engine? And where do you place them?


Bloody expensive bits / Jenveys / Rail’s / pipework etc ....as you need a new end loom and Aftermarket ECU that can handle x8....

Mapping £400-£500

Ive done it !!!!.....Is it worth it on a standard Engine ?...NO not for all the cost...but if you got money to burn YES....it’feels a different car Thumbs up

Satchell inlet not cheap x4 in there ....x4 in Jenveys



Was that to engine I’ve now got ?

Well here you go ...after ATL Fuel cell vent in take was playing up pressuring the tank and the filler rubber flap was stopping the refuelling got that sorted while car was clamped down on rollers...

Then both brand new calipers were binding on inside ofthe discs so had to shim both sides out 2mm that sorted ....

Then Sandy checked the timing taking both rocker covers off and cam belt pulley cover and found out it was far to advanced timing by 6 degrees and ajusted the pulley etc etc stillclamped down on a the rollers ...

5hrs later Ajusting the DTA bit by bit. ...run by run ....Sandys got a smile like a Cheshire Cat ...

The cars doing a Consistently 287.6 to a 288.6 time after time .Thumbs up

He said even he’s pleased how the extra 4 injectors has bought the bottom end up !!!

It’s now a official monster

So all in all amazing day Yes

No offense, Damien. You were talking about another 'standard engine' with 8 injectors and I thought that one was completely standard including intake etc. I did not read your whole project thread.

Awesome results and nice sound! Thumbs up

Not posted for a little bit ....

Rear metal arch cut away and supports welded on T style 50% out and 50% underneath and seam sealed ...

My 205 front carbon arches that are going on the rear of my 306 will bolt on and the metal lip will keep the arch liner up also as well as strengthen behind the 205 Arches

I'll be honest: I read most posts with very high interest, but I do not post that much. At the moment I see that my knowledge is way behind on yours. Therefore, I do not have much to contribute except for the fact that I am very jalous at all the work you can do!

Hopefully, in a few years I will be able to start a new project to get more HP!
