well CV Performance and Craig Burns have once again teamed up and made one hell of a mark with PSIDUP a tiwn turbo Ford Cortina owned and driven by Daniel Nunziante. 417 cubic inches of small block Ford goodness, 69mm turbo's (to comply with Mod Street Blown rules, twin turbo cars must have turbo's under 70mm) and all this is done on a 28'' x 11.5'' tyre (29x11.5 is the maximum u can run)
the boys were out testing on Friday night doing some very lazy half track passes but still running mid 8's ![]() ![]() ![]() here is some video of 2 of the runs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orbh_7xlchY Last edited by prasac; 25-10-2010 at 07:18 PM. |

Big congrats to Pazz for the number in PSIDUP. Impress to say the least and very well deserved, and not before time. Definately a lot more to come by the looks of it.

F6BF i don't think they hurt anything. one of the chutes didn't open on the 2nd pass and it could have ended badly. they may have told him to hit the brakes till he see's both chutes pop up ![]() FLUB378 i'm sure they wanna crack the 200mph mark in the future, they have the right guys behind them. CV has 3 turbo cars in the 6-second zone. CV and Burnsy put together Campo's and that is the quickest thing Australia has seen in a turbo car and only going to get quicker. |

![]() ![]() ![]() mickyyyy pretty sure he did, he had 2 Cortina's if memory seves me correct GASDUP and PSIDUP. PSIDUP is now a different kettle of fish, in Mod Street Blown you have to run factory style suspension (no 4-link, ladder bar etc) with very minimal chassis modifications allowed. the old Cortina's and Capri's are doing the Ford brigade proud, 4 Ford chassis's in the Top 10 Stu Henry 420ci Turbo Capri no. 2 PSIDUP Cortina no. 3 Chris Martin 454ci N2O Capri no. 7 Joe Geri 240ci Twin Turbo Capri no. 10 5 of the other 6 cars are Torana's ![]() |

Just for the record, is there any modular engine powered cortina's out there? Imagine what a modular turboed engine in a light weight TC-TD cortina will be like!

![]() no Ford modular Cortina's but there will be a modular Capri around this time next year, possibly sooner if we decide to throw my engine in the Capri we already have. there will be more than enough power to run a mid 7 if the chassis is setup right. |

I have a good TE cortina shell waiting for a V8 transplant, but unfortunately due to the TE engine bay not having the same room as its earlier models, no modular engine will fit

Was thinking of a coyote engine transplant not long ago, how much bigger (wider/taller) is the coyote engine compared to the cleveland? My cleveland powered cortina was a tight fit, but looking at the photos of the coyote 5L, there has to be some serious cutting and modifying of the engine bay to fit one.
