Pog’s X1/9

[nick_m]

Nice, thats where I want to be eventually. Pretty bored where I am currently

[Testament]

how loud is it with just the two resonators?

[ThePog]

Not too bad really, quite loud when you open it up though...

It is surprisingly effective really when there is basically nothing stopping the noise coming out.

[FLAWLES]

may i inqurie as to what that crazy looking device is?

[ThePog]

That is a synchrometer, used to balance the airflow through the carbs......

[FLAWLES]

oh wow

thats rad

you really do learn something new everyday

[bubblegoose]

what about some kinda under body scoop to get some flow going through the engine bay?

although 55' isnt too bad i suppose for something with the engine in the wrong place

[ThePog]

Ah you bitch

At least mines driving the right set of wheels.....

[bubblegoose]

Ah you bitch

At least mines driving the right set of wheels.....

mines not driveing any wheels atm

ps if you had of found another complete delta engine in the padock i would have been massivly tempted to drop another one in the back of mine

[ThePog]

If you promise to do that then I will find one for you.

[bubblegoose]

nah, although i am going to kill it track day spec

when is it?

[ThePog]

27th march

I cam email you the forms etc. Needs to be done soon tho, there is a demand for places....

[Requiemk]

Awesome news, will look into this tomorrow for my gas guzzler

[fuel]

haha you tool so you just relied on the trip meter for fuel consumption figures? they are hardly accurate anyway. Why didn't you just fill up the tank, see how many miles you got out of it, then fill up the tank again and calculate how many L was needed to fill the tank back up for the x amount of miles you did.

[ThePog]

fill up the tank, see how many miles you got out of it, then fill up the tank again and calculate how many L was needed to fill the tank back up for the x amount of miles you did.

This is what I have been doing, I just have been reading the trip meter in kilometers not miles so I am out by a factor of 1.6 - I am a tool.

I have owned the car for 2 years now and this has only just occurred to me.

Shouldn't really admit that shit on a public forum

[sheepers]

ha ha ha ha ha ha, dude i spat my tea all over the place.

thats funny. does this mean that your performance has gone up too?

[ThePog]

performance is 160% more awesome now

[Truenotch]

Good stuff... I had the same issue with my peugeot 505 - in the end it was actually quite efficient!

[NaN]

love the seat design, it's tidy as, but I'd gusset the joins, looking at it and thinking, 'so if I crash where do the bars under certain pressures/angles/force up if they come loose' not saying theres anything at all wrong it, just I from suffering bar intrusion avoidance syndrome maybe half dozen or so 2mm thick triangles here and there like the back section, make em long enough and perhaps it solves the attachment of inner ali / C/F panels (nice)

[ThePog]

yea, you might be right. Although if I weld sheetmetal into it then that will make it super stiff anyway. hmm that wont make the joints any stronger tho so a fair call.
