Hello, I'm new.
Hi everyone, Im new here so I thought Id better intoduce myself.
My name is Chris, I'm 25 and I live in Hayes, near Heathrow. I thought Id better sign up because I regularly end up using this site for
information and it seemed a bit silly to not be a member.
Im a long time Peugeot 306 fan but last autumn I decided I was going to have a kit car as well but It had to be cheap, I also couldnt be bothered with
the hassle of the IVA so it had to be something already road registered.
I ended up with a 1984 Dutton Phaeton S3 with no engine for a couple hundred off ebay. Im in the process of fitting it with a Zetec engine, type 9 box
and Honda blackbird throttle bodies.
Anyway heres some pics
My current 306
My Previous 306 (2.0 HDI diesel, hand built engine, hybrid turbo, water methanol injection, previous dyno at 165bhp but was estimated at 180bhp with
the bigger turbo theyer only 90bhp standard)
My Dutton on the day I picked it up
And now
