Thanks for the comments guys. The thread is just about upto date now, below is a lits of what im working on now.
1) New exhaust as the current 1 is too loud!
2) New brackets for the AP brakes
3) 8 rib pulley setup
4) General weight saving (alloy pulleys, poly windows and maybe some fibre glass panels)

Have you been speaking to Lynx about the 8-rib bits? Or sourcing your own?

Cheers mate
Well power wise im already pushing my luck at 306 bhp from a standard engine. Without going down the forged route all over again im not going get any more.
Lets see how long it lasts, if its a while then ill just keep dropping standard engines in, can pick them up for a decent price!

Yeah it is. Its a shame its too loud as its sounds mint, was just over the noise limit at cadwell!.
Would be ideal for a turbo car as the turbo will take up most of the noise.

Made my new exhaust over the weekend using Magnaflow boxes and a selection of custom madrel bends made to my specs. Its identical to the previous one i made but has larger boxes to muffle the sound better.
Magnaflow boxes
Downpipe section
Fitting of mid box
Rear section
Removed for welding and fitting of twin lambda bosses
Finished retaining standard look
