Mini 1293cc turbo charged

Post by mlarj »

Bought the megajolt V3 a couple of weeks ago as I have decided to revisit my mini project that has been un-touched for 6 years. 1293cc, competition high boost head, 10cc pistons, (8.5:1 compresssion ratio), competion camshaft, straight cut drop gears and gearbox. I needed to get rid of the distributor as space is very precious. Before fitting the MJ I used the standard dizzy to get oil pressure up having had the engine not run for so long, once I was happy everything was ok, in went the MJ.

I am very impressed, starts and revs well, currently I am using a standard metro turbo map (found on a forum somewhere), but I have added a switch to the unit so I can switch between maps. The other has a more 'tuned' configuration, hopefully a good starting point once run in alittle. Not driven it anymore than down the drive to wash 6 years of dust off, seems to drive ok though. :)

Aiming for a MOT soon so I can report how is drives for real soon! Amazing device for the money, very well supported on the forums, excellent work Brentp! I am keen to get the hard rev limiter, just waiting to see if brentp sorts a cheaper shipping option :)

Anyway, some pics so far...

Car/engine is a bit surface rusty in places, can't expect anything other when it has been sat for so long. Had to put the MJ on display I am so impressed :D Hopefully tomorrow I should have a lot of the intercooler pipework complete and get it up and running again.

Very interested in the temperature input modification when its ready, would like to trigger a electric fan as well as using it to perhaps retard ignition etc. Do you think you be able to trigger user outputs based on temperature similar to how you can for rpm and kpa?

Off to the store to checkout the costs, thanks.

Pretty much the finished engine bay, the MegaJolt installation allowed space for the intercooler.
