Well my wheels arrived today so when i got home from work i fitted them, i am so chuffed with them, they look so much better than the BBS ones. I will get some pics up of the wheels later but it is too dark to get any decent ones of them fitted. -
Cool, i love wire tucked engines they look so clean. You will have to get some more pics up.

Have you thought about trying to put your induction kit towards the front of the engine, or make a heat shield for it? cant be sucking in much cold air right next to the exhaust manifold.

In what car mate? as this isn't on the road yet. BPU is basic power upgrade which is : Stainless steel exhaust Double de cat with restrictor ring Boost controller uprated fuel pump Colder spark plugs Wideband Gauge Induction kit Fuel cut controller. With these fitted it takes the car up to 4oo+ bhp at the fly depending on what boost you run. -

Thanks a lot Phil that means a lot performance wise i have pretty much everything bar the fuel pump and 2nd decat to take it to BPU which is about 400bhp, that is all i want unless i can find some cheap uk spec turbos then i can go to 1.3 bar. -

Thanks phil, i will take some pics today when i go to see it. I was damaged by the loaders when it was being unloaded, they ripped half the front bumper off o they won't be the best pics lol. I went to see it last night and it is not bad but jurgen is putting me a new front bumper on, and he is not happy with the fit of the frp bonnet so is putting me a metal one on free of charge -

Thank you Phil I bought a Greddy profec E01 boost controller a few months ago and was looking for somewhere to mount it where it wouldn't be in the way. I bought a spare top glovebox from a lad off Japnortheast last sunday as i thought about doing my own style gauge holder, i am going to mount my boost controller screen and my Innovate wideband gauge in there. Here are a few pics from my progress tonight, as you can see i am trying to keep it as stock looking as possible and i am even going to try and keep the hinge so i can open it.
