After we were happy with the mock up of the new rear wider arches, its was time to make a start with fitting...

Out came the Angle grinder

This is the car lowered back to the floor, as you can see we have plenty of room. This is an 11J rear wheel

The next step will be to make up a lip for the new rear arch to sit on, as well as to join the 2 skins back together...

 

Full details can be read on the site of course...  http://www.theprojectmoff.co.uk/19-march-2013.5483995.cms

Lots more to come...

Now that we had cut the arches out to allow for more room, we had to weld the 2 skins back together.

This would do a number of things :

Put strength back into the arches
Stop water getting back up into the arches and rusting
Give us a mounting point for the new arches

We started by tacking pices of metal in place.

Loads more to come...

some good Progress

New rear arches are on .. The Wheels on the back, don't forget are 11J Wide !!!

Next the caris of To Abbey Motorsport to go on their Dyna Pack Dyno, some suspension work, and Race Prep

More info on the blog...

http://www.theprojectmoff.co.uk/12-april-2013.5484423.cms

Things are now really starting to hot up...

Here are some photos of the new rear arches. Believe it or not, we actually sprayed the rear arches using nothing more than black spray cans... This is only temporary until the car goes in for a respray.

The wheels on the car are spare wheels until the race wheels are fitted..

The Car is now off to Abbey Motorsport in Surrey, who will be putting the car on their Dynapack Dyno, setting up the Suspension and some other Race prep..

More details on the blog.. http://www.theprojectmoff.co.uk/25-april---arches-done-off-to-abbey-motorsport.5484935.cms

Project Moff is now at www.abbeymotorsport.co.uk.

After a quick look over the car, they noticed the exhaust manifold is cracked
and urgently need of repair. Its going to be removed and hopefully welded up.

They are extremely busy, but have managed to find the time for this
additional work, great stuff... :)

More updates soon....

Wow, huge thank sto the guys at Abbey Motorsport...

 

Project Moff managed 605 BHP at the hubs, which is more power than before, and at less boooooost...

 

Great results, dyno charts to follow...

 

RWD only, this is going to be fun... !!!!

Here are the dyno results...

 

The previous time Mark @ Abbey Motorsport had the car on the Dyno, at 1.5 Bar, the car was producing 594 BHP ATH.

We the changes and improvements we made, he managed to bring the boost in a little earlier, and at 1.4 Bar, 

we now have 605 BHP ATH, and what should be a more driveable car too...

 

Here is the Dyno Graph

Very simple way to drain fuel from the car.

.

Been a little while since the last update. We are working on
a few exciting plans to take place in early 2014...

 

 

Will be sharing with all once its all confirmed.. :)

Hiya All,

 

Sorry for a delay in updating....

 

The car is now back with Abbey Motorsport for a little bit of work.

 

Dyno Run - Bit of a health check to make sure car is performing ok

Suspension alignment - Abbey have a new hunter 4 wheel alignment and geometry set up tool which was recently installed.

Service - Change all the fluids....

 

Few other bits... :)

 

Keep you posted...

Lovely car can't wait to see it fully finished. Keep up the good work!  B)

 

 

 

This Sunday we are set to go to Silverstone F1 Circuit for the day, weather looks like there is a chance of rain, but fingers crossed...

 

The Go Pro is charged, so lots of video and photos to come... :)

 

Here is the Dyno run from Abbey Motorsport the other day.

 

BHP figure is on the right middle (618 at the hubs)

 

Lb/ft is on the left middle (divided by Diff Ratio which is 4.111:1, giving about 475 lb/ft)

 

Its maxing out the injectors, so has been set back a little form this run

 

 

Weather is looking like it might be dry, I can't wait for this Sunday !!!

 

 

We had a cracking day out at Silverstone on Sunday 9th March with Abbey Motorsport

and their crew. Quite a few Abbey customers too. The weather was fantastic.

 

Photos and videos to come...

 

Hiya All,

 

I've done a little write up of the work carried out at Abbey Motorsport.

 

Couple of videos of the car on the Dyno too... :)
