Sorry for being nosey, but what did you change in that area and what were your reasons?
Btw, in that early shot, are they Avons that you're running on the front?
inlet is now jenvey throttle bodies with a sunny gti-r plenum over them with short trumpets inside. previous is just a std inlet set up basically. the std inlet started to cause issues trying to make decent power past about 5000rpm. makes peak about 7200 now.
theyre toyo r888s same as i use now, not the same pair pmsl.

Ahh haaa.  I knew that mahoosive lump of ally looked familiar, but I couldn't place it. The boss's son where I used to work had a couple of shitty Pulsar GTiRs. That's where i've seen it obviously.
Impressive work getting it all in and making it fit and work sir.  
Good call on the throttle bodies too.  Must sound incredible in the cabin.
Nice revs too. Mine revs to about 7100 or so and it makes all the difference from boring 6k rev limit.

Whistles a bit inside yeah. Lot quieter since the wastegate was put back into the down pipe a few years ago.

Nice
It actually sounds remarkably civilised, considering how uncivilised it ought to be.
