Not updated in a while but everything is ready for mapping now and is booked in to TD for the 28th of this month. Power figures will remain a mystery until the day.. But I know what I want/what everything is capable of so I'm pretty excited! .
Erm, probably missed a whole load of stuff that I've done since I last updated but here's some of the stuff that I remember doing when I've had time lol.
The intercooler never sat quite central, meaning the headlamp sat on top of it. This pissed me off for about a year but never did another about it until recently lol, enough was enough so I just knocked up some brackets for it and sat it central.
(Don't mind the passenger chassis leg lol, that was an experiment that went quite a bit wrong.. So just ignore the bent ness of it lol).
Before.
After.
Got my boost pipes made up and all welded together. No more boost leaks, so happy!
Made a short shifter using a GT shifter. Extended is 2" either end.
Got a poly bush mount.
Also bought a torque damper and fitted it but didn't take any pictures. But here's one of the bay that I hate so much.
Couple of general pictures.
Also bought a GT passenger seat over the weekend and got it fitted today. Cleaned it up, hovered and shampoo'd.. Came out really nice and looks/sits SO much better. Such a good mod to do imo.
Anyway, like I said the car is all ready for mapping now.
Stuff I've done for mapping prep;
WEPR intake plenum.
New dizzy cap.
New rotor arm.
New iridium plugs gapped to 0.8.
Oil change.
Oil filter change.
Custom fabricated boost pipes.
Torque damper.
Poly bush mount.
Re mounted intercooler with new brackets.
Fitted short shifter.
Probably a few more things, like finally got round to getting a new battery stay and little bits like that to clean everything up.
Lots more to come after mapping and before japfest, for example I'm having my whole front end cut out and it's being tubular framed (hence not being bothered about the bent chassis leg experiment). And more shit.
That's about it I guess. Cheers.
