U havent fitted car tyres to a van have u?! if u have dont crash because van tyres require extra reinforcing by law, so they invalidate insurance etc.
nitro- hehehe!...saw some comment saying you ought to get a sports car.... this is the whole point. I've had old Volvo 740 Turbo estates, a rusty old Saab 900 turbo.. a bit of of tinkering equals a whole lot of fun at the traffic lights.... there's no greater shame than being trounced by an old git in a shit car. I've got a shiny and boring Mondeo TDCi ( chipped of course! ) - but Im on the look out for a piece of ebay crap with potential.
Why didn't you place a bigger or twin turbo setup, with custom software? NOS is gay.You allready placed a bigger intercooler, so the bigger turbie would be no problem.
@barthoedemaker it will have alot of turbo lag if he does that. I don't know anything about transits, but my focus tdci has virtually no turbo lag at all, the power comes in at 1500rpm up to 4500.
@barthoedemaker if you were going to use twin turbos you would do it like a skyline a small and a big turbo. the small one spins up at lower rpm and helps kickstart the big one and reduces lag.
that is compound turboing, many other twin turbo applications have 2 of the same size (in fact I thought skyline did?) like supras as the smaller the turbo the less the lag for a given app. so 2 smaller ones delivering same air as a large one still have advantages.
i have been working with some of the best engineers/mechanics in england for the past 3 years, learning the basics to full on custome turbo charging, to cam lobe design. and if you new any thing about a diesel engine you would understand that there are huge gains to be had with these engines. for example we had a s-max remaped with decat system,from 236 lb ft to 360 lbft. from just shafting point of ignition, and the psi of the injector....it is all very simple. and is easy done.
Un vero mostro. Mitico Ford Transit... che velocità raggiunge l'esemplare in questione? Se già supera i 165 km/h tachimetrici il 100 CV... questo vola!
Ignore the know nothing comments here mate, they obviously know very little. Top job mate, super impressed I love seeing Trannies get the treatment they deserve!!!
Might I suggest though a proper remap by someone like celtic, and more power can be had, and put the standard air box back on it, all you're doing is destroying the engine faster and I dare say the new filter is a lot smaller by the looks of it
@jarrus464 yeah a custom map will help i agree but as from now im not racing as its now a camper! i agree about the filter but i like the sound of the air being sucked in!
LPG is a good power adder on diesels as well, but the trick is getting it to work with the nitrous, that will take a very good tuner.... but it has been done before...
@nitrotransitman so you got it running again then? Didn't you post up on the forum that you were having problems with it? I'd be interested to know how much you spent and where the nitrous was fitted...
your van is great ,i just love it ,my van is 51 mwb/mr [ i'm converting to camper,] 100bhp and used as my main transport [her indoors has new seat altea diesel what did you gain by fitting the superchip and how much did it cost ?
1st mistake, 0.35 - no point injecting too much diesel to give black smoke as it isn't being used. 2nd mistake at 0.44, the standard air filter has a bigger surface area and allows more air to pass than ever required, it also filters. The pipes create a vaccum to increase airflow. You have DECREASED POWER. So 140BHP isn't too bad. 235 is rubbish.
i feel bad for you Brits. my truck comes stock with 280 hp and 330ft lb and im now over 300 hp and 350ft lbs with only $70 worth of mods. Not only can I pull 3 of those transits, i can go absolutely wherever i want to. total cost. $7500 the fact that you think that is cool makes me feel bad for you because that is sooo gaaaayyy..
You are a tool how big is your engine it's probably massively underpowered for it's size. And your truck probably weighs shitloads more than a transit you are a fool!
Intercooler can drop charge temps ALOT and a FMIC can make up to 7bhp, weather it gives power or not though, it's a good idea [no matter what boost your running] because hot charge air melts pistons etcetc, remember the inlet air is hot because the tubine housing is hot. Colder air is denser, you can put more into the cylinder, and therefore more petrol.
for 2012 ford are suppose to be making a new transit with a factory fitted (stantard) 280bhp engine, my brother in law has got a 200 T350 and it pulls like a train its unreal
Your My Idol Btw, Iv Watched This A Good Few Times. Makes Me Look On Ebay And Alike Everytime, They Look At My Bank And Realise Im Livin A Dream :( Unemployed Sucks
ill beleive you got 235bhp out of it when i see a dyno, 5-10hp from the intercooler (good mod), 60bhp shot of nitrous with extra fuel added by the remap (good mod), i guess so thatll boost it, 2bhp from the filter, de-cat maybe 3bhp if your lucky and are really smarter than fords £1million research and developement team).
A simple remap with no other mods will see around 160/170bhp, experience with BMW diesel tuning in the past with a custom remap and intercooler mod you can gain up to 15 to 30bhp from the intercooler,having the remap continually evolve with ALL the bits you bolt on is they key, else they are worthless as standalones. Do you not thinkg a decent remap and nitro alone would be possible to see 230 then ? (i dont know how much nitro is worth using your figures)
@racedemon89 then take into consideration the superchip which add's 30% power to the engine it's fitted on give3's at very least 32 bhp so add the 125 standard (which in most cases an understatement) + ur nos, 50-75bhp, then u add the exhaust system good for upto around 10bhp, and air filter maybe 7 or more, add l those number's 2g4 and what u get? at least 220BHP why u dont u go grab the key's for ur granny's Austin Metro, and drive ursel into a river! Jealousy get's u nowhere mate!
@racedemon89 How much power do the stickers add? Dont be a dick, he didnt put the stickers on there like boy racers do, he obviously wants to promote his company, it is a van after all. And as for your performance figures, gaining only 3 hp from an exhaust mod on a Turbo Diesel engine is a daft thing to say, you would see much better gains than that.
@racedemon89 add it up racedemon.....................125ps as standard this was 131bhp on rolling road as you should know bhp figures are slightly higher than ps manufacturers quote.
so....131 bhp add 60 nitros = 191bhp add decat and intercooler 13bhp = 204bhp add remap 30bhp = 234 bhp not so unbelievable really is it! and im not cleverer than fords research team
thanks for your comments pal...lowering is very hard but you basically modify the rear beam to take the hub in a higher place and therefore lower the van!
yeah u can sort front springs out fairly easy but the rear springs on the front wheel drive tranny have almost no camber so block or other mods dont work, a vr6 gearbox came out of the sharan vr6 and the insides were put into the transit casing
na not wheel camber, the bend in the rear leafs (camber) they are almost flat and because of the rear axle etc you cant use blocks...have a look at one you will see what i mean
VERY NICE!! just shows what a diesel is capable of and they are perfect for nitrous, i remember watching top gear , honda NSX vs standard golf diesel with nitrous fitted and it left the NSX in its wake that was an eye opener. its just the sound that i dont like although a v6 diesel sounds good:)
Im curious to know what your name means FT29V6 , the reason I ask is that back in 1991 we used to have several Transit 190s ( these were the old twin wheelers back then ) with standard factory 2.9L V6 petrol engines. They were excellent vans and easily out performed many fast cars . We currently run various vans and trucks including several USA ones. All the Transits ive seen lately are diesels and Ive lost touch with them. Do they even offer petrol engine options anymore, and if so what ? V6?
hi nitrotransitman did u do a step by step on this in the transit forum i would like to read it , i got a 100 t260 and was thinking of getting some more power out of it, love your van btw m8
Did your cone filter do anything for performance? I think I might slap one on my transit for a laugh. Can't exactly make it any slower, might as well walk!
Have you ever fancied getting hold of an ex- RAC van? Same small dimensions as your van, except rear wheel drive (for wet roundabouts) and come in 2.4 like the bigger vans. I'll bet their nippy as fuck!!!! And if crazy guys like yourself got one it'd probably be a supercar eater.
the cone filter did help but only as part of the bigger intercooler/remap/niros set up but it does sound really well! the rear wheel drive ex rac is heavier and the rear wheels just spin with lots of power so doin mods on those are less effective
oh dear! looks like you havent watched the full video before you chose 2 make such a silly comment,obviously ya dont know what a powerflow exhaust is?im sure they will be interested to hear their full stainless decat exhaust is a(botch) and im guessing you dont know what nitros is?you must of missed that rather large intercooler on the front(its silver colour and looks like a radiator)you say you like anything to do with cars are they matchbox or corgi cos you obviously no naff about real ones
on the contrary, i dont beleive an exhaust, filter and shot of nitrous will give you 110bhp.ive got an nvq l3 in motorvehicle mecanics and tech and another in engineering, the guy whos bragging about his van obviously does though, i thought "nitros" wer in crashs bandicoot?, unless its ricer talk for nitrous. ive rolled exhausts but i dont say it gives a million hp, and id hate to put a 100shot onto a standard internals engine, and im the one meant to know nothing about cars?
cheers ft29v6! this guy obvoiusly cant grasp what i have done and has a lot to learn yet! however i am laughing a lot right now so racedemon i thank you! he he
keep the springs and shocks just as they are.....then cut into the rear axle at either end insert/weld a steel block into the axle and refit hubs higher up on this block...this gives the effect of lowering and keeps all the weight capacity etc as standard
dude you are an actual legend! haha Is this beast rear wheel drive?
I have a lwb mk6 transit. Chipped so far to 140 BHP. But fuck me, its slow! haha I'd love to put a bigger turbo on from a transit jumbo or something but the cost of everything else and the insurance would be mindblowing.
Im glad to see you've put your heart into this project though,
The Diesel Engines are the best for getting better milage and the Chips/Tuners make instant HP Gains. The van is about 320 HP the way it is now. The Engine is made by International and they use the same engine in large UPS Trucks etc. The nitro in the Van is what Blew your Turbo, the Tuner/Chips will not blow the Turbo on the lower settings. Methanol Injection is a safer way to go, helps you get more MPG/MPL. Diesel is 2.35 a Gallon USA in Florida right now. Cheers.
I have the 2000 Ford E350 SD PSD PowerStroke 7.3L 445ci. TurboDiesel. Here is the way I have it set up, SuperChips 1705, Dual Amsoil EaA Air Filters, AutoMeter Phantom Guages - Pyro, Boost, Tranny & Hobbs Hour Meter, 4" SS MagnaFlow Wrapped w/Thermo-Tec 2" Header Tape, Sonnax Valve & Tricumulator Shift Springs, Mag-Hytec Tranny, Bilstein's, Centramatic's, 35 Gallon Main Fuel Tank & Trax II TransferFlow 27 Gallon Aft.

yeah u can sort front springs out fairly easy but the rear springs on the front wheel drive tranny have almost no camber so block or other mods dont work, a vr6 gearbox came out of the sharan vr6 and the insides were put into the transit casing

what does wheel camber have to do with blocks spacing axle away from springs?
tpvalley 2 years ago
na not wheel camber, the bend in the rear leafs (camber) they are almost flat and because of the rear axle etc you cant use blocks...have a look at one you will see what i mean
nitrotransitman 2 years ago
So is there simply not enough space between axle and chassis once the axle has been blocked up?
Im not questioning ur expertise btw, just wondering!

Its great when you overtake in a diesel, you get smoke behind and others are like WTF?

VERY NICE!! just shows what a diesel is capable of and they are perfect for nitrous, i remember watching top gear , honda NSX vs standard golf diesel with nitrous fitted and it left the NSX in its wake that was an eye opener. its just the sound that i dont like although a v6 diesel sounds good:)

235bhp is pretty good but the van is heavier than a normal car so if i had to do it i eould give it some throttle bodies and an uprated turbo
and i think that for me rwd would be better cus i like to burn rubber
do you have any subwoofers or aomthing like that in the van cus with an emty space like that in the back it would be rude tonot give a sub and an amp

Im curious to know what your name means FT29V6 , the reason I ask is that back in 1991 we used to have several Transit 190s ( these were the old twin wheelers back then ) with standard factory 2.9L V6 petrol engines. They were excellent vans and easily out performed many fast cars . We currently run various vans and trucks including several USA ones. All the Transits ive seen lately are diesels and Ive lost touch with them. Do they even offer petrol engine options anymore, and if so what ? V6?

When you say 'crazy things started happening' what mods did you do there?
Also - i saw your van parked up in Nelson last year! yaaay what prize do i get? haha
alexthebikeman 2 years ago
ha ha....no prizes for the spot mate not yet any how......well i thought nitros injection and plastic rally style glass were crazy?
nitrotransitman 2 years ago
haha crazy to say the least.
Did your cone filter do anything for performance? I think I might slap one on my transit for a laugh. Can't exactly make it any slower, might as well walk!
Have you ever fancied getting hold of an ex- RAC van? Same small dimensions as your van, except rear wheel drive (for wet roundabouts) and come in 2.4 like the bigger vans. I'll bet their nippy as fuck!!!! And if crazy guys like yourself got one it'd probably be a supercar eater.
alexthebikeman 2 years ago
the cone filter did help but only as part of the bigger intercooler/remap/niros set up but it does sound really well! the rear wheel drive ex rac is heavier and the rear wheels just spin with lots of power so doin mods on those are less effective
nitrotransitman 2 years ago
oh dear! looks like you havent watched the full video before you chose 2 make such a silly comment,obviously ya dont know what a powerflow exhaust is?im sure they will be interested to hear their full stainless decat exhaust is a(botch) and im guessing you dont know what nitros is?you must of missed that rather large intercooler on the front(its silver colour and looks like a radiator)you say you like anything to do with cars are they matchbox or corgi cos you obviously no naff about real ones
nitrotransitman 2 years ago
so youve got another 110hp from an air filter botched exhaust and a remap, yeah any my 125 puts out 100hp cus ive got a K&N lmao
racedemon89 2 years ago
hahaha racedemon you get your ideas on mods from watchin fast and furious!!! lol
this van kicks ass! trust me i should know ;-)
FT29V6 2 years ago
on the contrary, i dont beleive an exhaust, filter and shot of nitrous will give you 110bhp.ive got an nvq l3 in motorvehicle mecanics and tech and another in engineering, the guy whos bragging about his van obviously does though, i thought "nitros" wer in crashs bandicoot?, unless its ricer talk for nitrous. ive rolled exhausts but i dont say it gives a million hp, and id hate to put a 100shot onto a standard internals engine, and im the one meant to know nothing about cars?
racedemon89 2 years ago
NVQ in mechanics and your braggin HAHAHAHAHAHA
some people get out there and do it (nitrotranistman) where as some people sit at home critisising others on you tube - that would be you ;-)

how did you modify the rear springs to get that low
herculesstrong 3 years ago
keep the springs and shocks just as they are.....then cut into the rear axle at either end insert/weld a steel block into the axle and refit hubs higher up on this block...this gives the effect of lowering and keeps all the weight capacity etc as standard
nitrotransitman 2 years ago
well thats fast and prctical i coult do with something like that wot sort of torque has it got?

dude you are an actual legend! haha Is this beast rear wheel drive?
I have a lwb mk6 transit. Chipped so far to 140 BHP. But fuck me, its slow! haha I'd love to put a bigger turbo on from a transit jumbo or something but the cost of everything else and the insurance would be mindblowing.
Im glad to see you've put your heart into this project though,
good luck in the future with this!

The Diesel Engines are the best for getting better milage and the Chips/Tuners make instant HP Gains. The van is about 320 HP the way it is now. The Engine is made by International and they use the same engine in large UPS Trucks etc. The nitro in the Van is what Blew your Turbo, the Tuner/Chips will not blow the Turbo on the lower settings. Methanol Injection is a safer way to go, helps you get more MPG/MPL. Diesel is 2.35 a Gallon USA in Florida right now. Cheers.
