Rover 827 with nitrous

Post by Richf »

I have a customer (i supply nitrous fills, parts and tuning advice) with a Rover 827 , never the coolest car on the block but the guy is tuning on a budget and has some great ideas

Anyhow due to the shortage of tuning parts for this engine he decided on nitrous , thats where i came in , i helped him design and set up his nitrous system on the road and we recently visited a rolling road for some more set up

We have some clutch issues which we hope to solve and then we are going to try some bigger jets but the car goes very well on nitrous

70-90 in 1.5 seconds !!!

Has he spoken to moto build as they specialise in rover and mg tuning. That thing must torque steer like a female dog when the nitrous kicks in. Nice work though :)

used to have a manual fastback run around (bought simply because the van blew its g/box and needed something with a towbar quickly).............

very quickly as it turned out, spent the first month cussing it for being dog slow, until i realised i travelled everywhere at "blur" mph!!!

funniest one was catching a saph cossie on the autobahn in traffic - he obviously got upset that this

meant to be around 300hp but he has spare engines so we will test until destruction, total build cost so far is
