    Sounds like a good project you have going there.

    Should be a nice street machine.

    Post up some pictures so everyone knows what a Peugeot looks like.

    Any mustangs in Bulgaria?

    ... :-( Very rarely … These cars cost too much, we cannot afford it in Bulgaria.

    However, this is my favorite brand. I saw last Shelby GT500 on pictures …. I had no words, my heart stopped for a couple of seconds.

    Even there are no many Mustangs in Bulgaria, it is a prestige, a matter of honor to owe and to drive such a car … no, no …. It is not a car – it is gorgeous and magnificent car.

    As regards to my car and my project - here you are some pictures.

    This is the car. Peugeot 605, model 1994. An old one, but it worth the money.



    This is the turbocharger, compared to an audio CD



    This is the engine compartment ... tooooooo many tubes and hoses that will be optimized as much as possible:




    I replaced the rear shock absorbers with the only kit available for my car - KONI Special Red Adjustable:




    I wanted to order this exhaust manifold, but later on I decided to make it 4-2-1 instead of 4-1, because it will improve the performance of my engine:




    This the Aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator:




    This is the HKS SSQV Blow-off valve:

    These are the Brembo 4-piston calipers:




    This is the haltech E8 ECU ... the TPS and Trim module are on the way to Bulgaria along with the JE Pistons and Pauter rods:




    This is the Innovate LC-1 Wideband Controller mad for Haltech - Australia:




    Here are the Haltech Ignition Coils with built-in commutator:




    And finally the VECCO's components ... I expected more from Treadstone intercooler core ... :



    However, people say that even Treadstone's core does not look very nice, it is quite effective ... will see.

    Mike you have a good looking project in the works there.

    Is there a drag strip in Bulgaria or any place to race?

    Yes, we opened the 2007 season last weekend. Tomorrow there will be the first official drag race in Sofia, Bulgaria.

    Bulgaria is a small country and there are not too many enthusiasts that are able to start a drag project.

    However there are two powerful cars in Bulgaria. The first one is Ford Sierra with modified engine that shows 10.4 sec @ 1/4 mile. The other one is Nissan Skyline with 10.1 sec @ 1/4 mile.

    Building more powerful car costs too much. Drags are not very popular yet in Bulgaria, that's why there is only one drag strip in Sofia where I am going to be tomorrow.

    There are two race tracks in Bulgaria - one @ Plovdiv and one @ Sofia.

    My target is 300 - 320 HP @ crank, I believe about 280 BHP. I need for everyday driving in the city and on the highway.

    When I finish this project I will open another one for drag. I have one engine "Chochone" - v8, 5.000 l from Mercedes SL 500E. I believe it will kick 1000 HP @ crank at about 25 psi boost. Now I am looking for the proper cassis. But this project will start maybe late autumn.

    The Fast Ford Sierra.



    Nissan Skyline


    Get some pictures if you can at the drag strip. I would like to see what everyone is racing.
