She looks lovely Ash Sits so nicely compared to before now your new suspension is fitted. Very impressed.

Now you just need to get rid of those bloody wheels.

I've just replaced the centre section with a straight pipe as the box kept catching on stuff.

Same backbox so it's not massively loud, you only really notice the brapping on idle, so once you get moving it's kept the refined noise it had before.

Yeah, more of an issue of the power delivery than anything. Was taking 1000rpm for the secondary turbo to come online instead of 200 for example.

Kirsty mentioned it didn't feel so quick earlier in the year, so it's been on the way out for a while.

Not so cheap unfortunately, the upper inlet has to come off, few hours work so gonna be best part of £400.

Aborted the runs today as it was broken. But when it worked properly it made 374bhp. New exhaust on it should free up a few more, be nice to see 380.

Get the little whore bag up to 400! And stop fannying about and get decent rimmage on her, no point having power when those wheels are going to bin you at the first corner. You knows I speak sense

Cosmo RE engine, fully streetported and dowelled, Apexi PFC, larger intercooler, brand new turbos, HKS filters, air pump removed, Aeromotive FPR and larger injectors (1680s from memory), Walbro fuel pump, HKS downpipe, HKS centrepipe, Jasma rear box.

What colour is Andy's? Probably saw it yesterday.
