Superb, the whole set up looks very nice, I won't ask the cost.

I will, how much, and the turbo, did you reduce compression, what power.

the engine has custom accaralite pistons to lower the cr with a a set of arrow rods in there and shawspeed stt2 turbo cams,

its not run yet so carnt say what power it will make but i would think dependant on boost levels 250-300

rrp on the bodies are £608+ and the inlet 550+ then linkages and air horns on top, turbo is a gt2871rs

Will you still be able to get the bonnet on?
or will it have bits sticking out of it?

Looks a mean engine

Looks nice, can't you turn the inlet so the pipe comes in from below.

It would save you some bonnet space wouldn't it?

its where the bonnet fastends down and get inthe way of the headlight then,

i did think to run it towards the rear of the car but didnt want to extra pipe work

Fair enough, just a thought.

Agreed, pointing it at the back of the car would make for some long intercooler pipes, which wouldn't be very nice.

Hadn't noticed that headlight (no such problem on a Phoenix).
