Well I took the car out thismorning and i think I might have broken the gear box. It sounds like the diff is wineing but only in first and second thirds fine. So going to go give it some stick after the dentist see if anything gives up

Don't get a powerflow mate, they are shite. Magnex is perfect for looks / power / sound IMO. Or a BTB is your best bet if you can find one

Plans all sounding good, what TB's are they?

Nice track tool!
How do you like it driving compared to single trottle body? Do you notice the midrange torque? Was it mapped before (with cams)? Do you use filter?

well plans have changed a little now, had alot of fun with the throttle bodies but its time for big power.

so started to collect bits to build my turbo


the tax ran out on the car on the first so car was pulled off the road to start to mocking up the turbo parts.
got give a fmic from a saab 9.3 but was a little long and to thin for what i`m after


A twin pass alloy fmic came up forsale this week local so decided on that.



Today i started on mounting it



seemed to be a little on the flimsy side with only the bottom mounted so had to make a strengthener bar



going to do one for the right hand side aswell just to give it that little bit more.

have and oil filter relocation kit and cooler to mount tomorrow.
