Its as imminent as my motorvation! Im concentrating on the brake upgrade and chrargecooler kit at the mo (and Ive had lots of enquries about gauge kits now) so these seem to be very important to people...

As the red car is being broken up, Im going to remove the complete engine loom and sort out the wiring configurations for the ecu....

Some time this decade, I may get round to working on my own car! :cry: :lol:

Now dont be silly David. That sort of thing never happens. Its taken me until now to make time to put a car back togther that I had painted in May 2000 and I am not sure it will get completed this time. :lol:
Driving an A610 is just so sublime.

This says 2.5litre: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1928-RENAULT-MONO ... dZViewItem

Is it the same engine?

I think its manifolds are better designed and you can run 25psi of boost without it cutting out! :lol:

My new(ish) injectors have arrived....lets hope they sort the annoying misfire when running decent boost! It doesnt happen at all with standard or even slightly increased boost..........I have replaced both filters now.....having looked at the price of the (pair of) fuel regulator I am scared!!! (£220!!!! :shock: ).

After all that I already had 191cc injectors!!!!! They were the Bosch 130 part no. version that are used in the injected 2.8 PRV. They are also totally knackered having looked at them out of the car so theyre off to see injectorcleaning.com for Christmas! Complete overhaul and clean is £20 per injector........and its needed....at least 2 of the plastic end caps are cracked and one is different to the others. I am looking forward to getting them back already :D
