Here's a little update


Also fitted the standard airbox and put a Ram Air panel filter in. I need two clips for the airbox can you buy them from ford?
Painted the rocker cover black aswell purely because I really didn't like it in blue.

Ive got standard rear lights on the way and amber repeaters and indicators for me, so thats on the list.
Also have a blue samco hose on the way so I can take the dump valve off. I know you can blank it off but I think it will look neater if I replace the pipe 8).

Went to see Jano today at Oddkidcreactions and had the car setup :mrgreen:. The car wasn't getting enough fuel but Jano worked his magic and it runs sweet now :mrgreen:
Heres a few pictures



We got back so early we decided to put the rear lights, side repeaters and indicators on, but Unfortunatley one of the indicators broke so we couldn't fit them. The top turbo hose came aswell so we fitted that and took the dumpvalve off.
Pictures will follow once I get another indicator :mrgreen:

Thanks for the comments. Yeah I painted the wheels, they are slightly too dark but im not too fussed. LOL yes the intercooler is at a funny angle, Jano also pointed it out. It could do with being sorted but it feels pretty solid for time being.
I also have a smaller megnex backbox that will be going on at some point.
