so an update on the car.. i noticed a few weeks back that i had a slight oil leak from around the filter housing,which i pressumed must be due to crank case pressure and after some investigation and a compression test on the engine, found out number four cylinder had lobbed a wobbly,probebrly not helped by a **** map and my heavy rite foot!! so i decided theres only one option ,and that was to get it apart and see what had happend, i found that the ring land had broken away and very luckily no damage to the liner, so off to a well established subaru/ford tuners in wrexham ,who slung in a set of k1 rods wiseco pistons arp studs etc all the usual suspects and a new forge rebuild was born!! (built for a good 700bhp this time)still on running in millege and once im done going to get another map and injectors and see what the old girl will do..
couldnt resist a quick hoon around the newforest to stack up some millege...
