As soon as i got it home i fitted my cheap coilover overs and cav 2litre brakes from my old corsa and fitted the RH cups i had.


The updated pics with the new wheels aren't RH Cups though.

Bet this thing can shift.

not updated in a while, i had a few parts come over christmas


got some braided line and the banjo fittings i need to make up my oil and water lines, got a slimline fan to mount infront of the rad, some heat wrap for the mani and some general service bits.

Got my manifold back from being altered and wrapped it, it now looks like this



Im going to mount it to my spare engine and the weekend and make some supports for it and to get the screamer pipe sorted out

I know ya can get them out of a Rover Vitesse (I think), but I would assume they're rare items.

Feel free to correct me on their level of availability tho!

What's up with it? I can imagine getting a good fit is a right pain in the arse. Still.
How are you planning on running it? Just using an actuator boost controller etc or actual management?

At the time i had it made i didnt have a spare engine to mock up on so had to try and do it with the engine in the van, as it turns out the compressor housing fouls on the gearbox casing so i need it raising and moving over a bit.
Just running an external wastegate and screamer pipe with it then a boost controller if i want to run more then 1.5 bar
