My 205 MI16 Track Car (Pic Heavy)

[screwloose]

Thought it was about time I opened up to public scrutiny! Here goes.....

[sniff petrol]

1905cc alloy block with a dizzy adaptor and twin 45's?

I'll be doing the same thing to mine shortly. Do you still have to run an ECU with that setup then? Did you do the conversion yourself? Have you got a baffled sump? do many track miles in it? Have you had it rolling roaded? Any problems with the conversion?

Sorry for all the questions but I'm very interested

The 8v dizzy is quite a common option. Its on carbs so no ECU needed. TBs require ECU but not carbs.
It was built by the previous owner who spent an absolute fortune on it.
Current Spec:
MI-16, 16V 1.9 alloy block.
Fully rebuilt using fit forged pistons, new liners, main and big end bearings.
Fully balanced engine inc fully rework and gas flow Cylinder head.
High output oil pump & baffled sump kit
Peugeot 'Tarmac Rally' cams.
Twin Weber 45 carburettors, Longman cast inlet manifold and suitable exhaust manifold.
Peugeot Group N exhaust system.

Gear box fully rebuilt and fitted with a lower final drive and c/ratio gears
Quick Shift Gear Change fitted. All gear change rods renewed.
Competition clutch.

Bilstein grp-n tarmac rear shocks
Bilstein front coilovers with 275 or 300lb springs
Up rated rear antiroll bar.
Full rebuild of rear suspension beam with new bearings and seals.
GTI6 light steel wheels and R888s for track
Speedlines with Yoko Paradas for road

Front 283mm diameter, vented, cross drilled front discs.
Rear - cross drilled discs.
Ferodo DS2000 pads.

Most of the engine work was carried out at Field Motorsport - Tommy Field used to build Fancois Delecour's WRC engines. Not been RR'd since I had the carbs last set up by Tommy but he reckons it running around 200 - 210 BHP(Emmissions are very high). Its bloody bloody quick.
Been on track a few times and I love it. Tad hard for the road really.

That's one hell of a spec 205 you've got there mate, if you get the opportunity add a Quaife LSD, a good friend of mine has one in his Mi powered 205, the grip is phenemenal!
