RS200 and Turbonetics GTK450

So the turbo and external wastegate have now arrived for the Honda Integra B18 Turbo. The turbo itself is a Turbonetics GTK450 which is a twin ball raced turbo with ported inlet. The turbo is pictured below along with the Turbosmart 38mm high temp external wastegate.


We also have a Ford RS200 in for tuning, set-up and tweeking. It is nice to have one of these iconic group B rally cars.

The Gray S2 RS Turbo goes back to its owner this week and we now have a Black one from Inverness to do a simular conversion - watch this space.

Honda Integra B18 Turbo Conversion

Here are some pictures of a customer's car that we are building. It is going to be a turbo Honda Integra B18. Basicly it has a standard bore and stroke B18 engine using Worsner slipper pistons, Eagle forged crank, Eagle forged rods, ACL race bearings, new oil pump, new water pump, flowed head with Skunk2 valves. This gives a compression ratio of 7.5. The inlet manifold has been modified by Sitech Racing as is the AEM fuel rail and regulator. Other components for the build include 1000cc injectors, Turbonetics GTK450 turbo, Turbosmart ultragate 38mm external wastegate, Gotech stand alone managment, uprated clutch, lightweight flywheel.

Sitech Racing, manifolds, Fiesta Turbos, Escort Turbos

Over the last few week we have been busy an usual. We had a very well prepared Fiesta RS Turbo running a ZVH with Gotech Pro-X. The owner brought the car up from England to have the mapping tweaked and have the geometry set up.


We also made one of our inlet manifold for a ZVH engine using an EFI head.


The amazingly mint S2 Escort RS Turbo is still with us, the owner having instructed us to carry out more work. Fitting a set of Autometer guages at the moment.
