Right here we go and about bloody time. I been meaning to get a thread going for this for a while now. Bought this red shell about 4yrs ago, done cossie management, lost my job so sold it all, built it all up to mfi again but everything refurbed then when all i needed to do was get it set up and mot'd i one day just went out to the garage, pulled it all apart again and decided to do efi cossie management again.
Here it was over the years....

then when i went to mfi again it ended up like this....

and how it looks now....


The old girl looking sorry for herself, this shell in theory hasnt seen the road since 2003


So, i started collecting parts again for cossie management. I have everything now apart from ecu (want a l8), the engine bay loom Ryan is making for me, just got to pay the rest of the money for it, a air filter, 3 bar map sensor and a pf09 tps. All the rest of it i have, inlet manifold is away at moment being modified.


Had various parts powdercoated, heres just a few of them


Everyone who like me is moving away from chrome has their engine bay parts done in satin black but i want to be a bit different so am going gloss black. Have started with the rocker cover, coil pack bracket, map sensor bracket etc, but also will have inlet manifold, charge carrier, header tank and swirl pot etc done the same shortly. It may look good, it may look crap, who knows till you try. Any opinions??

Didnt realise how bloody huge these things are lol, well the bracket anyway


Was bored the other day so painted my thermostat housing again


And my next job is to pull out the rs turbo wiring loom and put this loom in, a non injection 1.6 ghia loom, much less wiring and hasnt had boost gauges etc cut into it, until now lol


So thats about it for time being, i'll drag the car out again at the weekend to give it a wash and polish then will get some outside shots, this is it before i put the wolfrace voodoos on a few months ago


Thanks for looking, Mike
