Just needs to sort the bodywork out now, and he's on to a winner imo.
Attention to detail is really impressive, dont expect anything less from dave tbh.
Still running it in at the mo, boost turned right down, sounds pretty damn cool with the side exit on though, cant wait to see / hear it full boost!

does the small breather from the rocker cover go to the header tank or is it just me not seeing it properly?

that is very nice. only things that let it down are the arty farty pics (no need), normal angles are fine, and the underside of the bonnet needs spraying properly.
love the colours though.

Nic, yep, runs back into the system further down. He has tried to tidy all the pipes up, so it may look like it runs to the small breather, but just tucks down behind it.
Kev, he hasnt been using it loads, think the engine has about 200 miles on, got a bit to go before he introduces a bit of boost.
Ben, he is getting new bonnet, wings, doors & tailgate. He is thinking about a carbon bonnet, i think he should stick to the dark bonnet, same colour as wheels.

No build blog, he doesnt use net much.
Will try and get a spec list off him when im home at weekend.
Did use to be an xe, got a bit rattely so built this instead with lo comp pistons, 3inch system with gen 888 tailpipe, a gt turbo with an af of .7 i think, and lots of other nice bits.
Bodywork wise, its staying pretty much the same, just getting freshened up with a few bits.

Correct, good eyes Mr Barnes. He has had the pipes cut off and welded into different places for better fitment iirc.
