Well, my trusty and much loved 2.5" full system has had to make way for a 3" full system as the 2.5" was causing too much back pressure at over 400bhp...

So - all the parts have arrived, and it should be on the car and fitted before the new year (yes, 3 days time!). Pics to follow.

Once that's in, the rest of the engine pipework fabrication can begin. This year I'm having more solid pipework than last year which used a lot of silicone pipework. The upside is better looks and better heat protection (I can wrap the solid pipes in gold reflection foil)...

Another step closer last week with the arrival of the hubs and shafts, so the drivetrain is basically complete now.

We're on course for a date on the road of before the new year still.

All ancillaries in, suspension, steering, gear linkages, bulkhead cut and welded as needed, gearbox mated to engine now, fitting the pair today.
Review of wiring layout and position of electronics this afternoon.

More to come soon!

Well, the running gear is back in. Pics to follow. Still the headache of a new loom to be made up but we're getting closer day by day now to having her back. Eta for being back on the road is around 01/12/12 now

More to come tomorrow!
