I was surprised. I thought more like 750kg. But then you add it all up, and look at all the light weight bits and it sounds about right. Standard clubman is 655kg add 20kg for turbo stuff, 25kg sound deadening and audio gear. Alloy head -5kg, flywheel -2kg, etc. Edited by alaskanow0 on 14th Jul, 2014.

Guess so. I need light stuff for mine! Or more powers!! If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

I run a a dinky oil cooler too, and a stat, found it great on the motorways. I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

It seems to come up to temp just fine and sits at about 94oC on the motorway and 100oC if thrashing it. However it was 24oC ambient yesterday. Class C 3rd Place Avon 2011 14.18 @101mph |

That sounds good. The constant speed on the motorways does seem to push the oil temps up!

Yes John, I've copied you, I decided the 7 core was too small. I think we've made the right choice.

Ok after a year or so and 2500miles running the road going 7 port Turbo, I've decided to ditch the A series and try my hand at something a little different. The A series as been fine, but I've got almost 10k invested in the engine, and don't use it as much as I should. I've decided to fit a cheaper option and start to use the car a lot more, and actually have some fun.

Just checked them out... surprisingly cheap, i was expecting a much higher price tag, surprised theres not more non a-series out there tbh with more gears and more bhp for a fraction of the cost On 24th Oct, 2015 jonny f said:

I thought about this conversion for my clubby estate but didnt look too far into performance upgrades. Cost wise, it was looking attractive though.
