Engine question ?
big_wasa - 26/4/06 at 09:46 PM

I so so so want to here my zetec run.

I have it and the box mounted to a test bed trolly complete with a rad ect.

Can I run the engine with no exhaust without buggering the engine ?

I understand that it will run a tad lean. But I dont intend to run it for long as it will be loud . I just want to check it over. It would be a huge boost for me

Can I respectfully suggest you don't do it tonight.
I'm just going to bed and we'll probably be able to hear it down here

I started my xflow without the headers on, it was beautiful, a nice jet of flame, a sound that made my balls tingle, and a load of neighbours who where expecting to see something a lot bigger when it rolled out the garage.

If you start it, make sure nothing flammible is in the way of the ports.

If it's of any use to yer, I'll see if I've still got my stock zorst fannymould if yer want? I don't want/need the chuffin' thing anyway as it weighs as much as as I do. I'll look to see if it's already been recycled and get back to you.
