CID - Club Italiano Delorean - ITALY

I like your detail on the machining rocker covers Andrea, saves using a hammer and chisel.

So, Andrea-tec has happened again!
I even think that I drove at 130 km/h with 878 on the highway while I was coming back home!

Some pictures following!



















How the hell can they have fallen asleep in that position??





Fog in Valsabbia!

Tape. Hold the world together. And your bonnet as well

I thought that too Rob, but I think its wrapping for a new set of louvre struts.

Paulo, whose car is the BAE, is that Andreas?, I thought he had twin?

That's not mine, thats Rudy's car, the guy who is holding the engine louvre in the last photo we have nice car in italy ^^

here the videos of some fun with mine. I had to change the tires I'm waiting a full set of sport AVON from the UK ( with 225 on the rear, want to make a test with a good tire in the back now )

Correct! No tape at all on rudy's car!
Here below you can see a picture of his engine

Nice pictures

Do you know what modifications have been done to the ignition and fuelling on the BAE turbo car and does it run nice?

Rudy is still experimenting solutions to get it running good. Now it runs nice, but still got no complete good mixture at some rpms and it got some pinging sometimes also.
Actually, the ignition is retarded a bit ( stock ign distributor ) , and for the fuelling it has an hobbs switch sending ground to the lambda ecu to enrich the mixture at pressure. Stock delorean CPR.
We tried a different CPR, without the lower chamber of the delorean one, and it runned richer and better at high rpm's, but not so good on lower rpm, and by the way the fuel consumption was very bad on highway.
The car used also to have a retarding timing ECU installed by the previous owner, but it was not working the way they installed it and maybe was damaged, so we took it out for working on fuel.

Yesterday we were trying a little ecu board i did build, for controlling the frequency valve not just "on-off" by the hobbs switch, but more gradually and mapped with a MAP sensor. In the end we see some improvement, but the FV has not so much range.
But maybe Rudy will buy a "5th controller ECU", wich are quite cheap and made the same work of the board i did build, to control the FV better and mapped with a MAP and Rpm signal. Or maybe just an additional injector fuelling, and taking out the FV.

He was also courios to try the electronic digital CPR, but the company is still waiting to release on the website the new version, so we are waiting. I know they are testins it with the porsche guys, but still get some problems.

But, also, Rudy is building a turbo ( or twin...) with a 24v 3.0lt PRV from pugeot 605... monster engine so he has not hurry with this one ^^

All interesting, let me know how it goes.
That digital CPR sounds like the answer, do you have the link for the website?

[tourettes tony]

yeah I'm curious (not what you lot are thinking either ) im about to start on my rebuild ready for next year
