Yeah had it made up at a local exhaust shop :) was the only way i could get the manifold to go around the supercharger (may possibly also be suitable for an aircon fitted engine ?)...you can see how tight everything is :D
Its a slightly compromised design vs cost, but does the job. |

Here are my Micra from Denmark :-)
Its a 1,3L with 113HP. I have made a cool air feed, which really gives it more power on the motorway. Please comment.... William. |

Here's my latest view of the engine bay.
You may notice a remote brake booster that's just been installed to get around the issues with losing the factory booster with the quad throttle bodies. |

Will.I.Am WROTE: "Here are my Micra from Denmark :-) Its a 1,3L with 113HP. I have made a cool air feed, which really gives it more power on the motorway. Please comment.... William." I'm not going to get into HP comparison's because they're not valid across different dyno's but I think that HP figure, if at the wheels, would be exceptional for a NA engine. |

yeah the turbo is a little too big for the car i must admit but at the same time i bet its more fun than whats right for it ;) turbo is a T04E and on a stock engine it run 149bhp on the rollers and that was pinking at 5500rpm. the guys wouldnt take it further so once complete im hoping to get nearer 200bhp.
stani ;) |

Very true, not bad for a 10 year old car, (it looks brighter with the cam cover) it's had a sheltered life living in the south of England. That has recently changed now I've bought it and brought it up into the pennine hills.
