Newbie Admin

Seeing as I am the new admin here I have to introduce myself.
Nice forum you guys have here.

I use to own a 1.4 Turbocharged Corsa. Which was quite nippy, but converted it back to standard and sold everything to a fellow club member.

Now I drive a slow ass Corsa! Also owned a turbocharged Opel Monza CD 16V, But removed the motor and sold the body. I have been busy with a project Corsa for the past 8 months. The car will mainly be used for drag racing and the odd track day. Stripped out interior with a 6 point roll cage. Most of the work is being carried out by myself. Except the assembling of the motor. Hope to have it running by November this year.

The motor specs are as follow:

C20xe Block
Costcast Head (Ported polished)
Valve seats grinded (Polished valve faces)
New valve stem seals
New valve guides
CD Cams
Scat conrods
Wiseco pistons 8:1 comp
King Bearings
Arp rod bolts
Arp Head studs
KKK K16 Turbo
MSD Streetfire Ignition wires
New water pump
GM Oil pump
Z20LET MLS Head gasket
MSX management system
F28 6 Speed Gearbox
TS LSD

Things I still need to get:
1000cc RC Injectors
Innovate wideband lambda sensor + gauge
Intercooler
ARP Main stud kit
Coilpack

With this setup I am aiming for mid 12's and with the addition of a bigger turbo and full slicks low 11's.

The look I am going for is Eurostyle. Here is a sneak peak of what the car will look like when its done.



With the exception of these rims. 15” Lenso BSX Gold

Nice setup

Just feels weird having an opel driver as admin

but hey it makes things interesting

Thanks for the compliments.

With the KKK turbo we are limited to running 1 bar boost. So estimated power should be at 220kw max. When I fit a bigger turbo I am looking in the region of 300 - 350kw. But the motor will be built to handle well over 400kw easily. As for fueling it will be pump fuel with water/meth injection for the beginning and as we increase the boost, will be running avgas.

Feels weird to be admin on a honda forum.

Like the saying goes if U cant beat them Join them! Lmao

Is the KKK turbo a standard TS turbo, Why did u decide on such Low comp. Gooi it 9.1 cr, So it can be more responsive. Are u going 2 be using it as a daily driver? Otherwise I would suggest not using pump fuel at all.

Yes it is the standard TS Turbo. The comp is not that low. The head has been skimmed quite a bit already and the block has been resurfaced and o-ringed. If my calculations are correct I will be sitting with a cr of 8.5:1.

Its not going to be a daily driver, but occasionally I will take it to the streets. Why don't you suggest using pump fuel?
