It has been a while since we dropped it off Wul but like you say the spec has changed just a bit since then. Think everything is in place for close to 550 bhp now with a bigger turbo and mibi exhaust, as cams,rods headwork ect are all inplace ready for it.
Once its ran in will need to see what its like against the S1 .

Latest update is the inlet is starting to be made, and have also decided to upgrade my pace 500 cooler to the big 65mm proalloy one . This is more a case of getting it in place justnow incase i want to go for more power in the future as the cooler needs moded forthe inlet anyway.
Also going to be running an external oil filter mount and oil cooler mounted behind the nearside 500 grill where the washer bottle normaly is. So need now to think of somewhere to have my washer bottle if any one has an idea ????? Was thinking of mibi using a 3 door one next to the powersteering tank if there is room.

Seen these parts for a good price so thought it would be rude not to get them as i want to go wrc style at some point.
They will all be getting re painted to freshen them up as the paintwork isnt the best.
Also got this interior which i think will end up in my new daily hack, as dont want to ditch my leather. Original hex cloth now with blue alacantara centers.

Cool Neil, didnt know your were going down the WRC route, should looks stunning when finished . Been thinking bout wWRC mirrors for mine for a wee while now, i just cant justify the miney in them 
rapidcossie
When my car goes back in for paint its deffy coming out wing-less

Jeff the wings are GRP but the spoiler is Kevlar/grp mix .
Euan im keeping 2 tailgates so its a 10 min job to switch, if i ever get round to having enough power to have some topspeed runs can change then
Jam not too sure if im going full wrc like the way Martins car looks with the standard front, was mainly the arches i want cause i had to raise it a bit cause of rubbing when i fitted the 9x18's.

Was through at ava last week and dropped off an oil cooler, and talked about a few other things for the car. The new 65mm core pro alloy cooler arrived so Tom can now get on with the inlet, fitting it up to the cooler to get the best fit and flow.
Also picked up a spare gearbox from Col Cos1 off of here so it can get the mullit treatment when cash allows. Just gave it a good clean up and paint in the mean time, can see the underside going bufty at some point

Euan : Only one thing for it then !!! Get alan to steal your rad next time your car is in as its thinner
Glancy : Yeh got them and the interior from Collin, there isnt much left of the spoiler after i atacked it with the sander to sort out the cracks, but will get it sorted out and rebuilt next time im home.
