Hi from Greece
« on: December 15, 2013, 07:07:09 PM »
Hi my name is John i'm from Patras Greece and i have a fiat 126 1978 red on my own from1998.
I used two years with the standard engine and then i build an other one with bigger pistons and the car went to 790 cc with bigger pistons from a nissan four piston old car i think was 120Y Datsun.
The car was build for turbo project but never worked like i want.
I put a turbo from a 3 cylinder 700 cc suzuki alto with a carburatator from a renault 1300cc turbo
but because my enginneer not knowing nothing make a ratio of 16:1 for a turbo car and the car never worked.
I will place some photos of some parts that are still in my garage to see what i had build and see how much money i have spend.
My dream was to turbo this car with almost 80bhp and before 7 years i buy i damaged charade 1.0gtti turbo 3 cylinder 100bhp and place it inside i make some running with the car but because haven't any money to put suspension and brakes i realise the car until now that see your club and want to give back to my lovely fiat a run again.
All these years let my baby in dust because no money and an other baby came to my life my daughter that now is 4 years old .
And also i have one more tuned car to pay for a Clio williams with Vw 20vt Engine
Thanks for reading i will place some photos when i find some time and i want with forum help (technian help )to finish my project.
 :D :D

Hi John, i hope you progress with your fiat... the setup sounds similar to what i'd like. But ideally i'd be at more like 7.8-8:1 compression in my watercooled bis :). I know this post is over a year old but sounds like we have similar ideas!
