pic of my valves i got other day, REC stainless 1mm oversize waisted stem ones, nice they are, fucking nice


ive had to sell the custom radtec radiator/oil cooler setup as there just wont be the the room between turbo and ic for it, ill get a different rad soon, pic of old one i have sadly sold




im intending to use this exhaust manifold but im unsure really, id like a nortech one tbh


and ive got this garrett gt3071 .63 wth t25 style exhaust housing and internal gate as i was originally just going to run internal gate but ive now decided i want external gate as they take up less room and are better so i think ill just get a new exhaust housing also with t3 style inlet flange

I've been wondering for ages what you've been doing and planning.
Looking good, sure with the big mouthed bumper you didnt need to cut the front pannel up..? If you even wanna sell the sturt brace give me a shout.
