lol glad you didnt say 26, would hate to correct you

[Guest]

you owe me a bourbon anyway

[gtlegacy]

what brand intercooler is that ? and do you run the factory gc8 scoop? watersprayer ?

[rex-leggy]

it looks alot like the ones from a1 radiators but im most likely incorrect.

engine bay looks very nice! 25.9 must be enjoyable

[Jambun]

Why is the oil press facing away from you...?

[Guest]

factory scopp atm, will be putting on a slightly larger one for testing

intake charge on std scoop at that boost is around 55deg - so not complaining

I/C was brought 4 years ago thru zerosports (i think)

I rotate the gauges so I only have to glimpse at them on the track and know that vertical or better is sweet

[petrolheadjman]

very nice

exterior pics?

[Shale]

Bloody hell, that's a bit of a setup going on there ;D

Like the colour too.

thats a very good idea ..... for someone that knows nothing :-X

[Kiwi_Fozze]

f**k me thats niiiiiice!!!!

i agree with the gauge theory, i did the same with some of my older cars... straight up is sweet as....

i love it ichi, looks like a lot of fun

[Timmah]

Holy crap that top mount!!!!

[Guest]

dyno on friday pm - just to get the numbers and check AFR reading against the one in the car

I know its fast, it spins all 4wheels in 1st and 2nd in the wet with dccd on full

getting just over 21psi in 1st now and have settled for 26psi max in the other gears - above 6700rpm the turbo spining faster than Garret advise at that boost (pressure ratio)

have a better cold air duct for it and need to route the R/H catch can breather away from air filter

[CUDDAS]

looks good rick,

is there any problems with breather hose length as to have it mounted in the inner guard? maybe passengers side or down beside AC lines into cabin

[Guest]

no prob, so long as hoses are decent size and free from kinks etc

I vent the L/h breather on the r/h side catch can and vise versa, also the main case brather runs to the l/h side the over into the R/h can

fixed my manfeild problem of catch can full after 6 laps (only manfield gave that problem with clockwise racing)

[Guest]

that intercooler must be a b***h to remove an put back on if you need to get under it though lol

[Guest]

2 min job to remove and prob 3 min refit - easier than it looks

Turbo on the other hand -mission

[Guest]

easier than a factory one you reckon?

[Nick_96_RSB]

Damn that's nice !

Well done mate, very impressive

[Guest]

cheers, will post up some outside pics and the rear cage soon --ie when its sunny and not snowing
