looking tough with that nice FMIC, good to see you got the turbo set up going, we'll have to see if we're as evenly matched at this dyno day as the last haha.

Good work Luke!
A new washer bottle and a shiny battery cover (if you're not relocating) and a few bits and pieces like that will make the engine bay look a million $$!

yeah the air filter is s**tty, and it made 154.9 rwkw's at 7 psi so its not too bad for crusien around in.. its upto 10psi now though. made alot of difference. but clutch slippen is a big issue lol, and yeah i'm leavin teh battery were it is for now. with the upholstery in the boot there not much room to make it look good. and i'l paint the washer bottle and rocker cover when i do the out side of the car.. chrome the intake and get a polished heat sheild made up for the exhaust manifold..
