2 pics emailed to me for u all to see

all comments welcome thank you

Looks good that mate. Engine bay looks nice with a sprayed cover. Cant wait to watch it change

watch it change? with the splitters and side skirts u mean? am gutted lost a race with my m8s 1.8 focus b4. just ran out of revs lol

yeah i mean the mods ur doin. Ur gutted u lost to a 1.8 foci, im sorry mate but that is inevitable.U'd have to change the engine or turbo it to even stand a chance mate

iv beat him once b4 on the "drag strip" going down to wirral country park in caldy from the cottage loaf

nice car. one of my mates has got one of them in that colour too. his is to 2.0litre 20v HGT one thugh. very very fast. lovely colour that. its a pearl colour isnt it?

1.2 will never beat a 1.8, it's a mechanical impossibilty.

That not true you can buy turbo conversion for 1.2 16v that up the power to 140bhp or 170 bhp depending on how much you got to spend i think its about £1300 for the 140bhp conversion. I will find the company who does this.

van Aaken due the kits and maybe novitec, I ve seen so many punto 1.2 16v with the kits on and scince they use the same engine i cant seewhy it wnt fit!

it IS possible for a 1.2 to beat a 1.8. But only if thousands have been chucked at the 1.2

For instance,a 1.3 ka engine can,and has been turbo'd and with this turbo and a stripped shell it would absolutely slay a 1.8 Mondeo for instance

£1300 isnt thousands

well its actually a 1.6 but he says its got the power of a 1.8.anyways can i get a turbo done for my car? that would be awesome!! anyways i hope u like my car tis my pride and joy. and it changes from silver to grey and to blue depending on the light.

No it wouldnt. A VAD turbo endura would kick out a maximum of 85bhp. They use a T15 Garret turbo which is set at about 6 psi. If you increase the boost, you get problems and your engine melts.

There's no way a standard 1.2 Bravo would beat a standard 1.8 Focus either.

like i sed he reckons its a 1.8 powered 1.6. and he crap at starts so maybe thats how i got in front and stayed there

anyways ordered my front splitters so hopefully on by the weekend. dont like the bland luk of the front bumper so hopefully itl add extra depth to it.

the 1.6 focus has the air filter on the right hand side of the bay with the inlet manifold at the front of the engine. the 1.8 and 2.0 have an exhaust manifold on the front of the engine that is a quick check to see if it is a 1.6 or 1.8

ah the lives of the small litre engines! bravo looks good but with some minor improvements could look better.......like the splitters you have ordered. i haven't yet seen a bravo with a bodykit i like, mind you with it only being a 1.2 i would go spending too much money on it, just get it looking nice then search for something with more power!

splitetrs came 2day yay. anyone know how much to spray and fit roughly?

not much at all mate,id suggest fitting urself if u think u could,and getting it sprayed at one of the sponsors

if you want the job doing properly, and i mean 100% properly then get yourself to *** ****, thats where i had all my work done - probably paid a small premium but their work is second to none.

failing that, get to sprayforce, used them for my springs, so cant vouch for quality of work really, but nice guys and a fair price.

will, the car is looking nice, i like subtle look, its what ive gone for with mine and what i prefer, keen to see how it progresses, but keep it subtle, its the way forward!
