Yeh would definately like one mate. Need to tidy everything up in the engine bay now Nic. Thinkin red hoses, new clips etc. And just generally clean it up with few bits and bobs. How much are those headers now? Still bout £80?

Update:

Did this a while ago but just managed to sort out the pics! Decided to make a little boot build. Nothing too fancy or OTT but it sounds great and looks pretty cool.

Made a template and cut MDF:



Then carpetted and fitted bass port:



Fitted in Climax Sub and Sony amp:



The finished item:




Very happy overall. What do you lot think?
Also went through my weekly spark plug cover change.




Painted this one red, masked the writing and painted with Rover Anthricite paint. I'm going for a red theme in the engine bay. First lot of Red silicone hoses coming soooooon!
Cheers for looking

No mate. Well not in the car anyway. It's serving a really useful purpose in my garage.
