good progress, is the stage 1 still coming off?
So much for not spending any money on it eh, im a right daft ****er!
After a boost pipe blew off and landed in a swap by East Mids airport a fortnight ago i decided id buy all new enlarged boost piping to save it from happening again as twating about at 2am in -2degrees with your sexy midriffs catchign a right draft is not fun at all! Muchos thanks to my mate Grezzler for saving mine and Titchs bacon that night!
Anyway, swung by Auto Silicone hoses in Leeds while at work and collected two Santa sacks full
roughly translated to
du out loads of unused bits from the XPloit, catch tank, 0gauge cables, Magnecor leads, amp cables n stuff, speakers n alsorts
before
turbo to intercooler pipework, id flogged the stainless steel stuff from the Xploit so used these special order long leg elbows...
50mm all the way through to 60mm at the intercooler...
intercooler to throttle body pipes before
60mm elbow with matching pipes to the throttle body
dump valve next to the throttle body, seems more assertive in this position
the leads
3inch intake tube
Removed battery and tray, batterys in the boot with this junction box in the space left
shifted alarm out the way, oil cooler too
after, or something to this effect after a a quick spruce too
Also meant to show these
Wilwood dynalites like ive only just sold on, silly me, bargain though these were
ALso fitted Apexi AVCr
new hedunit and speakers bla bla bla, new battery and 4wheels balanced and aligned, what a difference they made alone!

Good work there. Where do you get all the time AND money from? For most it's one or the other! I love the car too, and probably would have bought it if I even knew it was for sale before Dan got to it
working 80-120hours of the week provides the money.
certainly doesnt provide the time though lol.
shame the air filter isnt straight, looks a bit pants like that.
Been off since thursday morning, usually get at least a full weekend if not a 3dayer off
The filters pointed up a little more then i wanted and had to rush off out as i was finishing, its meant to be pointing off the the nearside though, wanted to use the stainless filter that came on the car as its abit bigger but the neck on it was too long and it was fight against the slam panel.
