Project Cosmo - Finished (nearly)

[legend01]

Was up at race solutions this afternoon checked out your car very nice looks comfey inside . I thought the bubble on the back of the roof was a brake light till Matt said it was an aerial maybe I should get onea them for mine look good

Cheers Peter

[B-Man]

I think that's that GPS antenna.....

Have they done anything to the car yet ??? Prolly not - they seem pretty busy.

[legend01]

I don't know didn't ask the question ,tried to look after you gave em a little job and said its got priorty over everything somehow I dont think he beleived me

Cheers Peter

[legend01]

So how's this progressing ??? any news

[B-Man]

Haltech are making a 20B loom for their E11V2 ECU - also doing some software changes to accomodate the Cosmo ignition system. Using my car to test everything..

All that should be done now - so we should be getting into the good bits soon. I haven't spoken to Matt for a few days - but I know Maroun is chanting at the bit to get started (and so am I).

More soon ......

[JAS-25T]

cant wait to see this thing go!

[B-Man]

226rwhp is the baseline.

Which is shit - OEM ECU is crap and running hell rich.

Next milestone is the new ECU with the stock setup - Hitman (matt) is uber confindent that we will get MUCH more power and economy, just with the ECU replacement.

Haltech are still working on ignition code and should be finished monday or tuesday - So that is the next dyno run.

After that - Compression check, full service and all the good bits go on.

More to come.......

this is before the t04 is fitted yeah?

[B-Man]

YES mate - it's all still stock as a rock - they are getting the ECU right first - then fitting the good bits.

So the order of things goes like this:

1) Dyno run as I dropped it off to them - 226RWHP - Completed.

2) Install & tune the Haltech E11V2 ( so they can get a basemap for Haltech, so they can sell to other Cosmo owners whio just want the ECU changed) - Not completed

3) Dyno with just ECU and stock everything else. Not Completed

4) Fit the good bits (1600cc inj's, TO4Z, Fuel Pump, etc) - Not Complete

5) Tune with new bits - Not Complete

6) Dyno the final product - Not Complete.

So far we are between step 1 and 2

yay

i just assumed that as its been there a few weeks already they would have dyno'd it before now hence my confusion...

but coolio

cant wait for updates

for such simple engines rotaries seem to take forever to build :|

[B-Man]

Haltech have finalised the new code for ignition - a bit tricky the way it had to be done.

260 HP at the wheels with just the Haltech - standard boost 11.5:1 accross the board.

Engine is a little bit low on compression - but nothing to stop the next stage.

Stay tuned.

[legend01]

So is there any updates on this yet

[B-Man]

Since engine was low on compression and I didn't want to risk anything - Have decided to go with a full race prep engine rebuild - which is why this is taking so long.

Fully Dowled block

Mild Ext. Port

Race seals and spring

The whole shebang

then all the good stuff goes on

Should be ready end of Jan.

[fatz]

lol

hope your ripping out the 2 cats near the turbo

they suck the zub

[B-Man]

Yeah Pete,

They were gone a long time ago - all three std cats have been given the boot. Actually the whole std exhaust has gooooone - Have a nice brand new shiny 3" -> 2 x 2.5" system with one big i flow cat. no resonator and two cannons at the rear - Zorst is FREE FLOW man

Good.. told you not to bother with an unopened motor

[ranicx]

wow, that thing is going to go very hard.. love to see the times it gets when its all finished

[2rismo]

Just don't sell it too soon and buy a 4x4, freaky-boy!

[B-Man]

Nah mate - already have 4WD

This one I am keeping for a loooooong time
