ESKIN8R Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Love it, Staying with lo comp pinto or slamming turbo on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
browndog Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 I have thought about slapping a turbo on it, 8.3:1 compression should work well:) . If I can find a nice old turbo conversion kit I may put it on, just low boost, nothing too silly. But for now probably just stick with the low comp Pinto. Got the Mk1 if I feel like driving a fast van;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakotom Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I was reading this and read 'Bit of a dummy trial before I get them painted and fit the bags on' please say thats bags as in airbag suspension not tyres :] . Still dope though, grandparents neighbours got an old transit stuffed in his shed with his rally escort, I like transits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandparents neighbour isn't an older bloke named Andy? Silver Mk1 transit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
