Mot

Last time i went to MOT the guy told me to put a cover over the turbo/em for next MOT. So today i made a cover from a piece of aluminium. Just for MOT inspection. Will get back tomorrow with the results...

Clean as a kitchen table

Once they look at it they'll pass it without even testing it. Gorgeous

Making the car ready for MOT

So i've been making the car ready for MOT, muffler/cat and headlights without tint are fitted. Also been driving without ABS for the last year because it hade some problem. Last week i got in to fault finding and found out that one ABS-gear on the left driveshaft was gone.. So i had to order a new cv-joint, i ordered two just because.. So after almost 2 weeks of waiting they finally arrived yesterday. I got both cv-joints changed today. Also found out that one of my driveshafts (left front) was bendt.. I ordered a used one from the scrap yard, will change it later on. Now i can hopfully get through MOT, i will try this week.

Starting to dissasembel the driveshafts, notice the bent shape:

One cv-joint changed:

Comparison

Made a Comparison between my two dyno runs. Except for ported head/larger valves, 7A cams etc, the difference is one deleted cat, one deleted muffler. Also 0,1bar more boost. Otherwise noting exept the tuning.

Tested

Hello! This weekend i was able to test the new oil cooler and sensors. The car was running good and oil temp was better. Before the oil temp on the dash, showed 130c after som hard pulls. Now it stayed below 130c, and with the scale its hard to se the actual temp. The sensor in the sump only went up to max 93c. So i think its good. Also the oil pressure is better with really hot engine. After hard driving the oil pressure before was around 2 bar, now it's about 2,6-2,8 bar at idle. So the oil must be cooler now. But i can't tell the exact numbers of the oil temp because i didn't have the oil temp sensor in the sump before.. But i'm fine with it. Now it's time to put the car through MOT and then hopfully it will be a lot of driving during this summer

Bad weather..

The weather in south Sweden has been like winter. No test drive with the car yet. But hopfully this weekend.. I have mounted the cover for the multi ribbed belt, that i have been missing. Thought it looks better with the cover. Also cleaned and waxed the wheels.. Will post when i have done the test drive. Hopfully with lower oil temp.

Hi there,
nice work, congratulation. Just a recommendation: probably is better if you put the fuel filter away from the turbo.

Hi, yes i know it's not a good place.. maybe i will do something about it later on but not now. But you sure need to keep an eye on it and make sure hose/couplings are good.
