as far as i had been told the guy that bought it new said that about 4 years after owning it ran into the back of the car (was uninsured and he raplaced the front with a set of standard lights rather than forking out almost a thousand dollars new from ford and the repair was done in Mt Isa back in 1997 i got the car with the original plates (but rego ran out but still have the plates) same as log book is all up to date till when i bought it with an original 112k on it. I paid bugger all 2 years ago when i got it (needed loads of new stuff) springs, shocks, exhaust, windscreen, balljoints, new suspention rubbers and bushes, front rotors were buggered(scratched bad prob due to only having 2 sets of brakepads over 100k lol) so i went slotted front and rear too, mirror backing was pealing so i got a plain black set and getting the rest painted in time being when the weather is suitable

How have you found your S/C VCT what boost and setup did you use?
ECU? etc?


I like the S/C VCT combination, though I don't have much to compare it to. Its still a work in progress, as I made several changes that haven't come together just yet. It is a powerdyne/capa setup. ECU is motec M800(all fitted by previous owner). I think M800 was needed to run the VCT.
It runs a 9psi pulley.

Good luck with whatever forced induction route you go. This is interesting to follow.

Extension housing can be replaced but the output shaft will still be too long.
