Andy its a manifold off. Mike R your looking about 1200 ish, mine was spec'd wrong due to miscommunication . And that one was sent back I now have the t4 twin scroll one it's just having the w/g pipe extended as that's how I want mine.

Haven't posted on here in a long time due to being busy and after the hassle I had over the gearbox I bought off here I decided not to come on here much.


However here was the car finished a few yrs back

The car was great altho now having learnt lessons and being more of a weekend car I have planned for changes. The car has been sat at mark sheads for the last 18 months due to head lift problems he is swapping to the new studs. I'm picking it up shortly and I'll maybe post a few pics.

Around 600hp it's on a 7670, it would do more but I don't wanna more power it's good where it is. Once I have the new plans finished I'll slap it on the rollers.

I doubt it, it's going to the bodyshop when I pick it up from Marks and I'm in nor use to have it done for the summer I'm planning on pulling it apart once more then hopefully not for a long time! So will aim for the following year, there's just too much to do and details to get it rushed for shows i'd rather it was spot on.

Decided to change the air filter route as it was too in your face and sucking possible hot air.

So I set about making a new one.
