[Damo]

Nice one. Just bought some gti 6 brakes for my van. Will follow this as interested to see how it goes

[7057sam]

Sound interesting

Looks clean from the outside

[xudlingo]

Well looks like the van didn't want a clean my electrics going mad now lol. speedo cluster lighting up like a Christmas tree everything else on dash works and engine runs think I got something wet

Nice new bigger steel wheels not full rust lol plus brakes will fit under 

And some wind deflectors 

[bashbarnard]

You have to be careful with these. Basically i think they have the economy mode when they don't detect the engine running and puts all the ecus into shutdown. Which isn't a problem for the engine ecu but the bsi that runs all the electrics on the vehicle will be. Im just saying this as I was going to build a 207 xud not that long ago instead of my estate and came across this problem.

[xudlingo]

Already built one ecu just needs a sig from crank that also gives you a rev counter

207 xud would be different lol

[bashbarnard]

Fair enough man. How do you get the correct signal from a 1.6 though as the signal on the dv6 is taken from the crank pully and the signal from the xud is on fly wheel.

[xudlingo]

Just going to put my bsi/ecu from my old van with modified flywheel dw8 one

Would still take in out eco mode with 1.6 ecu but rev counter would probably not work right

[bashbarnard]

Ah I see. Well best of luck my man.

[xudlingo]

Thanks mate

Have to get this done so taking some short cuts need it on road 

Custom back mount made to take newer box 206 hdi but not 6 speed as still in 307 not had time to take it out. will fit later when I get time but with custom back mount will just be a straight swap

Saab gt17 mocked to make sure no clearance issues adapter plate made. Got 2 questions were best to plum the water feeds for turbo also between the adapter plate should I put some sort of gasket 

Missing out hdi rods hope be ok lasted over 200k so far lol

That exhaust not staying like that lol

[Jimbo]

I ran a gt17 on my last xud. (Search my threads for ph3 xud)
I never plumbed in the water lines and it was absolutely fine

[Damo]

took my van up the hill at pugfest today. was interesting on all standard suspension and brakes

Rub it in to much to do was planning to go

[Jimbo]

Yeaah really good mate. Pulled 156bhp i think. Torque figure unknown as it had no rev counter for dyno operator to calibrate in.

[Damo]

The faces of people when they saw a van going up was classic

[xudlingo]

Can't beat a sleeper lol

Some pics of work so far just cleaning and paint getting gaskets and seals tomorrow night so hoping to be in end week
