It was always my intention to supercharge this car, it was just a case of collecting the parts, and luckily last week I stumbled upon this!





Now the body kit is terrible, however under the bonnet it has...
Fully rebuilt engine
Wossner low comp pistons
one year old C30 74 Rotrex S/charger
490cc injectors (unknown brand)
GMC rad / intercooler
Mocal oil coolers,
KMS standalone management
Helix clutch
Wilwood 4 pots
So the entire engine + loom will be removed and fitted to my Icey VTS, along with the 4 pots, I have a 4 branch raceland manifold which will be swapped over also, as this for some reason is using a standard manifold 
I need to source a new S/C belt also once I find out which length this needs to get good tension, the one currently fitted appears to have lost a couple of ribs and is slipping!
Despite this the car drove very well from Exeter to Motherwell, rather kumpy below 3000 rpm, so I will need to get that checked out once the engine has been swapped over.
