a little update
i wasn't happy with the front shocks, way too soft , the car was bouncing up and down at the front.
so i started adjusting the red koni's. the right one whent fine, but the left one isn't adjustable anymore, and it feels verry soft , so that has too be replaced. for now i fitted the original shock at the left front.
than i started with the st170 manifold
removed the old one
out with the pulsair tubes
from this
too this
too this
and finaly this
and it fits :Q
next thing is making the mongoose exhaust fit the manifold

the bad koni is back to koni, they'll fix it , just have to wait
the st170 manifold is ready and the mongoose exhaust fits
i had a "spacer" lasered for between the manifold and the head so the manifold fits good
wraped the manifold , looks good
only waiting for a new "slim line " fan, the old one doesn't fit anymore
also got me some roose motorsport cooling and Ancillary hoses and fitted them

it's alive again
i'll have to say, it sounds like a beast
and it drives much better than before, fast throtle response, and it pulls through the revs like hell
the new fan in place
st170 manifold
just missing the starter
had to chop a bit from the carter to alow the lamda to fit
the rest of the exhaust
little sound clip

i removed the belt again and changed the waterpump while i was at it
old vs new
all fitted back and running again
i bought a cross-over from a frst and modded it
as i got it( it's modded to fit a zetec rocker cover by area six)
and how it is now
removed the pipe on the left and welded 2 holes up and from "turbo" to "RS"
not ready though
