Had the car about 2 months now and haven't really done much other than drive it, clean it and sit endlessly at night looking up mods for the power increases lol.
Here's some pics of the car when we first got it and I took it up to the unit to get cleaned.
After 2 months of ownership I decided its time to get the car checked out running wise, Citroen has fitted a new throttle body recently to the car from a sticking actuator so we booked the car into Sitech Racing for a dyno check. The car came out running absolutely bang on as you'll see below. Excuse the dirt on it this time it was used for a week flat out and I was ill - it did get washed after this honest :cool:
As you'll see the cars running absolutely perfect, not a fault with it really apart from at times it was holding back on the rollers on a couple earlier runs with traction issues on the computer. Really happy with how the car is for a base to start off with.
Decided this weekend that I was going to start the modifying process with some breathing mods, so I've went and plunged in for the Green panel filter system.
I'm not too sure on the forge air filter setup for the Racing engine's yet, and wanted to keep the standard box on for now so this will do the job nicely. Bit expensive at £63 for a panel filter but not breaking the bank compared to my Cosworth's filters
Next mod will be getting a new exhaust on, followed by the forge piston dump valve, boost hoses and hardpipe kit and then look at a sports cat and getting the front mount intercooler ordered up for it with the catch tank mod as well. Should have most of this done by about the end of the year before it gets a remap and look at turbo change options and a forged engine later on next year once i've got rid of a few other cars in the fleet and finished in the new house as well.
