[richieelliott]

thanks ill keep on looking

[FTOLTD]

just so happens i have a pair of turbos in excellant condition for the 6A13 as i took them off to put on a bigger single turbo.

If you are interested you can email me with an offer on FTOLTD@hotmail.com

[zentac]

Danny what type are they ? TD04?

[FTOLTD]

not sure

they are the standard mitsubishi ones

[zentac]

They are not the same as the GTO I checked to day, but forgot to write down the numbers on them. I will have another look tomorrow.

[mossy]

....... are Mitsubishi TC03-06A, is the world's smallest: the turbine diameter is only 39 mm, and it can spin safely up to 210,000 rpm. The shaft linking the turbine to the intake compressor is pressure-lubricated

[FTOLTD]

I thought they looked small

well if anyone ever needs one or two i got a spare sett here i would be willing to sell

Where did you get that info Mossy? Interesting stuff.

[mossy]

...just had new "cartridges" done in my turbo's under warranty and the dealer quoted me the model no...then went away and did a net search to see what info is out there...not a lot!!!

[richieelliott]

thanks all ill have to keep on looking. where did you put the big single turbo? and what fits?

[FTOLTD]

My 6A13 is in an FTO and i put the single turbo above the gearbox here is a link to some photos of it

[richieelliott]

nice pics just got my missus an fto mivec 2 litre v6 picking it up soon are they any good?

[FTOLTD]

i think they are a great car just needs a bit more power in my opinion but for 2 LTR NA they fly

[richieelliott]

i take it that mivec is a mitsy version of vvti? vtec? that sort of thing? shes happy cause we have matching colours! ha ha

[FTOLTD]

yep thats right

I bet she is very happy the FTO is a great looking car and i think you will be surprised how it goes when you really push it

[richieelliott]

is the mivec 200 bhp?

[FTOLTD]

yes sure is

[richieelliott]

ill have to give it a good thrashing when i pick it up

[FTOLTD]

you will enjoy

not quite as quick as the VR4 but close

[richieelliott]

is there a turbo available for the mivec?

[FTOLTD]

RPW is making a turbo kit for it

I used the 6A13 engine in my FTO

[richieelliott]

keep me posted m8 ta

Hello FTOLTD i am interesting to replace the stock turbos by one bigger. What was your selection ? And how much cost to you? INSERT INTO post VALUES (including the piping work). Did you replace the fuel pump, the injectors ....?:headsc::headsc: :headsc: :headsc:

[FTOLTD]

My 6A13 is in an FTO now and i used a Garret GT30 i replaced fuel pump and i am trying to find new injectors but it looks like i will have to get these ones laser drilled there is also a lot of other mods done but i have spent over 20000 AUD on the conversion

But it is hard to compare as there are so many things I have done that you would not need to do, most of it is custom made to suit the car, here is a list for you,
Garrett GT30 turbo, aftermarket computer with complete rewiring, full 3 inch stainless steel turbo back exhaust, uprated clutch, external waste gate and screamer pipe, rising rate fuel pressure regulator, earls fuel lines, 2 extra injectors, modified inlet manifold, custom exhuast manifolds, custom intercooler and plumbing, modified throttle body, custom made heat shields, ceramic coating, walbro fuel pump, BOV, modified thermatic fan, custom stainless steel braided clutch line, custom throttle cable, custom stainless steel braided oil line to turbo, silicone hoses, custom made oil return, custom made brackets, modifcations under bonnet to make it all fit, custom made engine cover, powder coating, dyno tuning, boost control, modified cranksensor, modified engine mounts, relocate battery, relocated power steering resevior, custom made catch can,

still to be done
fuel injectors, twin plate clutch as upgraded single plate not holding under full boost, engine internals, strengthen gearbox and drive line, brakes

[richieelliott]

my missus has had her fto a coupla weeks its ok to drive but front wheel drive at speed gives me the willies! and its got nowhere near the mid to top end grunt of a 2.5 litre monster!!!! INSERT INTO post VALUES (macho talk):D :D :cool1: :cool1: but at the end of the day i suppose its only a chicks car!!!.................. INSERT INTO post VALUES (waits to see how many nibbles i get after that comment!) ho ho ho!

[PUDD]

:eek:LOOK OUT richie :nono: that comment may draw some
adverse attention :scelp: pmsl.INSERT INTO post VALUES (but i cant say i disagree lol) :D

[FTOLTD]

I would put my FTO up against any VR4 out there and i would enjoy watching you in my rear vision mirror as i pulled away.

Mind you it would be no contest:cool1:

[richieelliott]

Well that was easy!! and i wouldnt mind being overtaken by an fto but wear a nice short skirt and bring your hairdressing gear too lmao!!!!!!!!!

[FTOLTD]

over taken ha you got get infront first

you going to lend me your skirt and hairdressing gear and dont forget to bring your tissues to mop up your tears after you been flogged by a FWD

come back when you got some serious horse power

[richieelliott]

obviously struck a nerve here sorry for upsetting you.
what do you consider "serious horsepower"?:Ponder: :Cry1:

[PUDD]

:eek: that statement might draw some adverse attention aswell:D lol:biglaugh:

[Spirit]

Now now girls, settle down :D

[richieelliott]

this is the best thread ever it has entertained me for days!!

[FTOLTD]

oh and dont forget to loose a few kilos

no one likes a short skirt on some thing thats over weight

well with the weight you have to pull i think you would be needing 500 + at the wheels

[richieelliott]

and id probably need to be able to spell weight

[Spirit]

Calm down guys - forum rules are flexible but not breakable - no personal attacks/insults or will close thread

[FTOLTD]

personal

not at all

i am talking about the car

[Spirit]

I was refering to your spelling ability mate

[FTOLTD]

that would be right

i bet you were one of those kids who would take his bat and ball and go home to mom

oh no you probably one of those who played that game they play over there

what is it called where when they eventually score they all run around kissing each other, soccer i think isnt it.

so just grab your ball and run home to mummy

[richieelliott]

lmao nice edit:D :D :gun1: :arse:

[richieelliott]

nice response max power ltd you dont get more bhp by putting stickers on!

:arse: :arse: :gun2: :gun3:




:flamer1:



what fun but this thread will be closed if you keep getting upset, dont cause now the rugby season has ended this is my only entertainment !

show me a pic of your car with the 6a13 engine in then bloke?:boing2: :boing3: :boing1: :hurrah: :wavey:

ps i found the smilie page couldnt you tell!?

[FTOLTD]

typical pom

dosent know how to read properly

you might think your great at spelling but how about reading the whole thread

then you might notice a link to the photos

if you look on page one of this thread

open your eyes

so i guess your car is covered in stickers hey

[richieelliott]

typical criminal in exile cant you see the pic with no stickers on?:arse: :arse: :flamer1: :flamer1:

[richieelliott]

its not finished then? looks like a hybrid hairdressers car when its finished you will be able to get to your appointments quickly!!!
fastest hairdresser in exile!:arse: :arse: :arse: :arse: :arse: :monkey2: :monkey2: :flamer1: :

[FTOLTD]

best things the poms ever did was send us out here, I got to give em credit there.

well the way you cover every post with smiles, looks like you want to put stickers on it

i guess you just cant afford to buy any stickers for it yet.

[Ailsa]

:nono: Children Children....!

I have a proper hairdresser mobile that could whip both your asses in to shape - and yes it does have stickers ;) INSERT INTO post VALUES (and they do make it go faster! :) )

[Brind]

Hey hey hey what's going on here? :nono: no need for this no matter how funny it is. :)

I respect the work you've put into your car FTOLTD but I sure as hell wouldn't want to go around any corners with its power, straight line you most likely have the advantage over us but don't pick on the big boys as we have the whole package.:)

[zedy1]

brind

[richieelliott]

i hope this thread wasnt taken the wrong way i thought it was pretty funny and still do and i reckon fto ltd does too but i suppose all good things come to an end!!! but this was the most fun i have had in days cheers fto ltd , and sorry if i offended anyone but at least i have got an fto to base my arguments on and i stand by the fact that power and fwd dont mix!!

[richieelliott]

and those smilies rock!!!:devil3: :devil3:

[FTOLTD]

i think I heard someone say once that it was 5 Hp per sticker ?

Well actually it still corners great.

and you want to really feel some adrenaline get behind 400 Hp in a FWD

I have driven loads of high powered rear wheel drives and nothing compares or can desribe what it feels like when you get 400 Hp at the front wheels

Hey Ailsa get that whip out I got my :arse: out waiting for a good whipping

Come on baby hope you are going to give me a good whipping ohhhhhhhhh yeaaaaaa

oh and hey for looks the FTO gets first :prize1:

[richieelliott]

its definatly 10bhp per sticker
and sure the fto looks nice
........ but compared to the nsx its a skoda

[FTOLTD]

oh well then i am sure you will get a NSX cheap considering they still sell at auction in Japan for a 1990 model at
over 3 million Yen
besides if your going to talk about those sort of cars a Ultima GTR looks much better, or maybe we will go for the new porsche carrera GT

[FTOLTD]

any way what is a skoda ?

[richieelliott]

i agree not a realistic car however you said that an fto comes first in looks! but i dont agree that german sports cars are attractive but thats my view and a skoda was a eastern european car company that made skips with wheels....... however they make some good cars since vw started to influence them

[richieelliott]

3 million yen? you can get an nsx between 25 to 40 thousand pounds? dunno the conversion

[BraindG]

[FTOLTD]

that looks more like a galant then a FTO

[richieelliott]

lol:D

:nono: That's the biggest insult ever! you should be strung up by your testicles and hung over a pit of alligators for saying that! :nono:

Is the adrenaline similer to the oversteering feeling you get from that type of drive when you know that you are heading for that bush whether you like it or not? :D

[richieelliott]

with 400bhp at the wheels how do you stop/slow down whilst cornering? i dont know why im asking it isnt even finished

[Spirit]

Have to agree - that's a major insult and your apology would be appreciated ;)

[zedy1]

the fto is good but the galant is the daddy

[FTOLTD]

hey look at the picture of the skoda and the FTO and the galant, the skoda looks more like a galant than it looks like an FTO or should i say the Galant looks like the skoda. I think the skoda came out first.

by the way the FTO was finished and has the dyno sheets and has been driven around now for a couple of months but yes it not completly finished as i will do the internals on the spare engine and will be going for 600 Hp and want to break 10 Seconds

will be taking it down the track next month and will post some time slips
any one got some time slips for their Galant INSERT INTO post VALUES ( skoda look alike )

[Nick VR4]

Blah blah blah :nono:


Where is the Dyno results then post them up

[richieelliott]

real ones would be nice

[FTOLTD]

still having problems with your eyes i suggest you get some glasses

http://photos.yahoo.com/dannyboyau

[Nick VR4]

Nice looking Car and nice dyno results
keep up the good work :D

Oh and Lets ALL try and keep this friendly ......no need for sarcastic comments

[FTOLTD]

got to give some of the credit to the 6A13 motor but most of it to full throttle performance, thier skill and knowledge about performance cars and how to set up turbo properly.

Just a shame that you cant give the 6A13 much more than 18 Lb boost in its stock form

[richieelliott]

wow lots of bhp !!! what about the torque? any plans for improvement?

[pjjohnson]

BHP and torque. BHP is torque at high revs.

The way to work it out is BHP = Torque INSERT INTO post VALUES (ft/lbs) x rpm/5252.

So at 5252 rpm if you've got 300ft/lbs of torque you've got 300 bhp, but if you've got 400ft/lbs at 3500 rpm you've only got 266 bhp. I know which I'd rather have, its torque that makes a car accelerate.

The good thing about a twin turbo 6a13 is that its torque comes in at really low revs with very little lag. But the downside it starts to fall after around 5000 rpm, which isn't good for headline BHP figures.

[richieelliott]

thanks i never new that what a clear explaination ty.
i always thought that torque was better which are the better ways to improve your torque?

[zedy1]

nice looking motor m8

[PUDD]

OI!:nono: behave plz:nono:

[LOMY]

I think your 400+ hp FTO would be left, front wheels-a-spinnin at the line over the quarter mile by a well set up VR4 matey. Just look at the reviews for the latest 147 Alfa 3.2 INSERT INTO post VALUES (fwd). Only 250ish bhp and it was caned by the critics for its inability to inspire confidence AND for its limited cornering ability.

[PUDD]

:D Yes lomy,i seen that too.
Takes a lot to out perform 4 boots on the road with that much powerINSERT INTO post VALUES (ie VR-4's);)

[richieelliott]

i was being serious about the torque bhp thing!!!???? no need for a telling off!!!! pudd

[PUDD]

:)i know u was richie,just glad to see the convo settled down now ;) :hurrah:

[richieelliott]

i never got excited mate but the bhp torque thing was interesting the explanation i never heard it before was good

[richieelliott]

goes to show that every cloud INSERT INTO post VALUES (thread) has a silver lining!
