BC gearbox rebuilds and RS2000

Sitech Racing has just completed 2 BC box rebuilds to include new baulking rings, gaskets and seals, which have been fitted to the corisponding customer cars.

We also have just received a RS2000 with a Fibresports X-pack kit. This is going to be a big project as the car is only just a rolling shell at the moment.

Focus Duratec 2.0. We have just made and fitted one of our custom inlet manifolds on this engine, results have been very good, making the engine rev more freely.

Escort Cosworth. This has been a fairly in depth mod, they have include fitting a Gotech Pro-X on a 36-1 trigger wheel, the car also runs launch control. We have fitted new uprated fuel pump new Fuel Lab filter and Turbosmart pressure reg. The car also has had one of our new inlet manifolds fitted with RC injection 750cc fuel injectors.

Haltech Sports 2000 ECU for Skyline R33 has been delivered just waiting to get it fitted and mapped.

Nissan Pulsar head. We have fully stripped and ported a SR20DET cylinder head for an ongoing project, next job is to strip the engine.

Gotech Engine Management and Throttle Bodies

A month has passed since the last Sitech news update during which we have worked on a very mixed range of vehicles.

Vauxhall Corsa with Throttle Bodies
We have fitted Gotech engine management to a 1.6 Corsa GSI on throttle bodies with great success.

Peugeot GTi with Throttle Bodies
There has been a Pug 106 GTi in with throttle bodies, again fitted with Gotech engine management. This combination makes for a very quick and responsive car.

Fastest Escort RS turbo in the UK

At the weekend Sitech Racing attended Crail Raceway in the Pitlochry Car Hire sponsered Ford Escort RS Turbo. It performed perfectly.

This year the car is sporting a new spec of Newman cam to make the best of the GT30 turbo, it also features our revised valve train geometry.

Sitech Racings best time of the day was a 12.65sec at 122mph. We feel there is room for improvement in that time as the car was not running NOS, also the car was running on 3 year old 205 section road tyres.

DC Turbonetics conversion, Escort Cosworth, RS200

So the last few weeks have seen Sitech Racing working flat out.

We have had a Ford Escort RS Cosworth in for set-up, geometry check and adjust.

We have also carried out a high lift rear clam conversion on the RS200 and tweeked the geometry, along with an engine tune to increase the boost pressure.


The Honda Integra DC2 has moved on quickly. It now has the engine installed and the turbo bolted in on a nice ram horn exhaust manifold. The massive intercooler also has been installed and we are just waiting on some parts to turn up to finish the hardline intercooler pipes.


Good progress has been made on the Escort RS Turbo from Inverness. Its 300bhp 2.0 ZVH engine is in the car. We just have to do the GT25 turbo conversion and map the Gotech ECU.

Fast Ford at Crail Raceway and a new GT30 Turbo

So last week a new Garrett GT arrived for the Sitech Racing Escort. It came from AET Turbos down south. The turbo has been built to allow a higher boost pressure to be achieved and flow some Nos.


On Sunday Fast Ford were at the Crail Raceway Drag Strip. The Sitech Racing Escort RS performed well all day and posted a best time of 13.3 sec which was the fastest Ford FWD time of the day.

Also the Mitsibushi GTO of Scott which is maintained and set up by Sitech Racing, performed very well on it maiden run up the strip, posting a quarter mile time of 13.7sec.
