Re: Amr500 on 1641cc ! dyno p23
Bought 2 new rear tires with a taller side wall. looks much better and rpm's dropped to a more comfortable range at cruizing speed.
Also washed the car, it was 2 years ago.... then I gave "waxing" a try, paint looks like new now.
only did it once, will do it again in a while.
Now the car is on jack stands, finaly replaced the hand brake cable's.
only thing left is to put the drum's back on and re-set the handbrake lever.

Oh I do, drove it as much as possible, 6-700 Km in 2 weeks. Not bad for a weekend car.

Hi guys!
While the forum was down i came accros the first water/meth kit i saw for sale in a year. And it was only a 10min drive from where i live.
Contacted the seller., he bought it for a turbo conversion but his plans changed. The kit was never used and looks brand new. Only thing missing is the manual, original box and the water/meth tank. But that can't be hard to find at the car wreckers.
It has been laying in the garage for a week or 2 now and havent really looked into in but i will post some pics here so you guys can help me find what i have and what else i need to buy to make the kit complete.
When i get back at the blower it will definatly be mounted on the engine. But it would be fun to see if and how it all works.
Greetz!

Oh, and i replaced the 36 dells with a set of beand new 40 webers.
Dyno and a finetune are to be planned.
Car runs verry smooth and easier start when cold.

Small update.
Carbs have been fine tuned, high stacks on there too. No air cleaner. Oiled the inside of the decklid.
Engine made 107hp and 159nm torque.
So the horses stayed the same but gained 10nm in the torque range. Verry smooth accelleration. Max torque at 5500 rpm. Rev limiter set in the black box at 6200rpm.
Also bought a early nineties Gene Berg shifter.
That was yesterday so no test driving yet.
But whaaaaaat a difference from the stock one with the empi short shift kit.
Hope to test tommorow.
Also need to upload some photo's from the watermeth injection kit i bought a while ago.
