Mg zs vvc turbo
 
Well this project is underway as we speak.

It started life as a 02 ZS 120.

It will be converted to VVC power this week, and will be rolling roaded so we have a start figure.

I expect to see around 175bhp-185bhp initially.

Then we will be turbo charging it.

What's being done to the vvc to get that figure? Turbo would be nice, know there's a guy on .org talked about adding a turbo to his F but the project thread went on forever! Will give a KV6 180 a run for it's money!

The VVC will not be running the stock ecu.

It will have a very un restrictive exhaust, and some induction mods.

This should see us with the figure above, I have previously on a ZR 160 achieved 184bhp with stock ecu remapped and induction and exhaust mods !

Hahaha talk about freaky, im doing the exact same thing to my 02 zs 120 :P apart from the turbo.
Accidently bought a vvc engine of ebay and picking that up soon so will be sticking in a induction kit, 52mm throttle body and also having the ECU remapped. then get it on the rolling roads and see what it does.
So i may be rampaging you with lots of questions in the near future:P

Cheers

Who's ZR was that?

No, dont do Emerald.

It will be the top of the range DTA !

The zr was back in 2005 so doubt it will be known on here, and it now lives in Ireland with a t16 under the hood !

Considered omex? Cheaper and second to none customer service, so so impressed with their customer service! Lovely bits of kit
