Just over 1800lbs
Mapping isn't finished yet when I get the 455lph fuel pump in will open up the Rev limit
I will also iron out the lumps

 

That thing must be a rocket. Is it street legal?

 

Yes street legal also
But has become quite a handful on the country roads

 

Beautiful car! I didn't realize Vauxhall made cars with an ecotec in them.

 

The 2.2 ecotec was quite common 10 years ago but less common as time has gone on due to Eco stuff but think they still label there smaller engines ecotec
But mainly in motorway bashed cars

Fancy putting one in a vx220 ( made by lotus if you didn't guess ) it's very much like the new exige v6 chassis but 12 years old now lol

I bought a brand new 2.0 turbo saab engine ( B207 )put 2.2 crank in with forged Pistons and rods uprated valve springs and a set of ZzP stage 2 cams and stuck a HARROP on it and here we are,
And some fancy software to run it all on

 

Does anyone have any expierience of ignition settings for stage 2 lsj cams (zzp) I'm up to 22 dgrees lower down the rpm range with no sign of knock
I'm around 20 degrees higher up Rev range but,
I would like to no what you all are running ignition setting on the same cams ??

 

Hi chris welcome to the forum.......

 

Thanks for the welcome
Got the LS4 working on my setup
Took a bit to get it to run at idle due to the throttle position to valve position in the TB



I've now put my 125mm intake on to the LS4 TB and will give the car a full remap and see how it goes

 

First track day with harrop & LS4 bolted on

IAT


A few videos

 

when you push a little hard

thats over 140 mph down the straight

 

This winter WI will be added

 

Always liked these little cars. Seeing as Vauxhall is a fully owned subsidiary of gm. Im surprised this didn't make it to the states as a Pontiac fiero of sorts.


Inexpensive mid-engine sports cars sound fun. Its unfortunate we don't have hardly any here.

 

Keep up the good work man

 

Thought i would update this thread a little bit
water injec tion is now fitted and im using 100% water (no meth)i also have a failsafe map with lower ignition which automatically kicks in if the water injection system runs out of water or fails
its not yet completely mapped but the cooling of the iat has really helped with the car

ive still not cracked the 400 hp mark but im getting closer

 

you can see how much the water is cooling the iat temps here



the water injection is controlled via the ecu and the injector duty cycle

 

 

Cool car man good runs I love to watch stuff like this

 

HEre is a other

 

first track day of the year at the weekend


glad to be back driving

 

Took the car for a sprint at croft in the uk
1st in class and 8th overall

 

Really like the way your car looks

 

the shape really is aging well, the car is 15 years old this year,

 

 

It sure is looks really cool alot different from what's sold here in the us

 

i heard there was a vx220 sold in the US for 35,000 dollars
