New pics of the Orion Tubby

Had to take the 5 spokes off for a while until I get proper wheel nuts, so put the pots back on and gave her a wash 8)

yeah, it still looks good all original, but def prefer the mondy wheels.

Keeping the dump valve for now, it's my first turbo car, so loving the noise of it.

Wish it would chatter like Mish's FRST instead though!

I'm new to the tubby game, what's up with a dv on efi?

It was on the car when I got it, thought it was a strange place to fit it too. It isn't that loud as I'm only running 3-4 psi until I get the ECU/MAP sensor etc fitted. My gf was running 19pis on her ERST and the DV was crazy loud!

Any particular kind of chip I would need for the chatter? Won't be doing that for a while though, gotta get her running sweet first
