After fitting the timing belt and water pump the other day im currently waiting on waterpipes for my new turbo so i can bolt her on and put everything together.
The plan is to fit all the parts get her machine polished,take some photos send them to fast ford and try to get a feature.
I will update the thread as and when i get a chance im away offshore this friday so the thought of spending chritmas on a rig isnt helping me lol

Looks like an interesting project

Power wise though if you're running a gt28 setup on an FRS engine you should be easily able to get a reliable 330bhp odd if you wanted

its woodlined underneath the cover which has been painted black and fully sealed to prevent any leaks and yeah the bed is useable i got a call one day when i was at my garage from a courier company guy saying he was waiting at my house with a package for me so i went home where he handed me over a large box which contained my new intercooler so i tried to fit it in the passenger seat but struggled and then i thought DUH wait a minute youve got a pickup so i just launched it in the back lol its quite useful
