mapped on E85
I would have expected more to be honest.What was the afr on full boost ? you may need a new fuel pump or have fuel pressures issues.

Turbos Hybrids
Sound chocolate then,id be well wary.Remember the warranty covers the turbos only.Not any other damage or removing the engine after.I used Turbo Dynamics for years and a basic rebuild was £300 each. And they are a reputable dealer ask Smithy on here.

Turbos Hybrids
Is that £600 each?? have you checked.I was getting quotes of £750 each 5 years ago.And that depends if yours are any good.The biggest problem is the exhaust housing which cracks around the wastegate seat.The housings are hard to come by and ive seen several sets scrapped because of this.Id be wary of tubs rebuilt that cheap.

ECU help - Jeff?
A standalone system will always be better but if you wanted a q45 maf would run that or a doolz set up on a chipped ecu.If you have the AEM already then your committed really.If you dont then consider either a custom map or an Emerald system perhaps?

ECU help - Jeff?
Ahh yeh i see now the manifolds.Get the heads ported.makes a massive difference with bigger tubs too.Helps to get them spooling lower down the rev range.You could still permenantly run that on a custom mapped stock ecu if you wished though.

Turbos Hybrids
can of worms there mate.Jesus i remember some threads back in the day regarding this subject,who was good or not.For the cost these days a set of hybrids with new cartridges can be bought for reasonable money from some stateside suppliers like Z1.

ECU help - Jeff?
Once you cut through the stuff that has no effect on engine performance it has not got a huge list of actual engine mods just bolt ons so prolly could be run on a stock ecu chipped probaly with a custom map.Id have gone for high flow exhaust manifolds and ditched the cams personally on that build.They can be added at a later date.

clutch hose modification
This will work,just cut the ferrules off your old pipes that go into the master and slave,work out the amount of pipe you need and get the ends flared.Old style autoshops will do this for a few quid.Or offer a garage guy a drink to do it for you.

Me likey
Showing my age a bit here but i remember one twirling around on a stand and the Brum Nec many years ago when they were spanking new.Liked them then but now mmm im not sure,it really is just a carlton that was tweaked,they handle like boats id imagine.The gsi3000 never handled that well so id imagine that wont either.Come to think of no Vauxhall did then.They always had a poor chassis compared to other cars.Anybody that owned an sri,gte or gsi from back in the day will know what i mean.With any performance Vauxhall then you just hung on for dear life when you gave it beans and it just rolled and lifted wheels as it pleased.

Zedworld Chipped ECU

-
Zedworld Chipped ECU
Ive returned 260 miles out of mine to a tank of fuel and im using 555 injectors and can drive quite "heavy" so it shouldnt cost you that much bud.

Uprating camshafts
Youll need sprocket adaptors and depending on the camshaft specs maybe hardened springs and retainers.Mild road grinds will be fine but some of the crazier profiles will need maybe vernier inlet sprockets or BDE ones and possibly with the really high lift profiles some head machining and solid lifter fitting.
