nice. This car has come a long way. Nice to see you driving, taking it to the drag strip and car meets.

Why such a big turbo, seems like that thing would be laggy for just cruising around on the streets.

HI guys

Car was dropped off last night for:

New downpipe
New manifold
New boost pipes
Fitment of new turbo

The flanges for the manifold did not arrive unfortunately, however the guy doing my car has an FD aswell that he is busy bolting on an hx55 Holset turbo and wanting to build a 10 second car.

So he luckily offered me his manifold that he has already made, along with the downpipe and the screamer pipe for the wastegate.
Only thing left to fabricate are the boost pipes

Below is a pic of his car with the manifold and everything bolted up.

PS: I am NOT doing my boost piping like his, however I am after the same finish.

Hope to get the car to the dyno before the 18th for a nice tune on pump gas and some higher octane gas as well.

Purchased an Innovate wideband from another mate the other day



So car went back to where the manifold was made as the turbo is heating up anything close to it. Melted Brake reservoir bottle, clutch slave cylinder as well as a couple accelerator cables

They are cutting up the manifold and re-positioning it for me. Should have car back before the weekend

My tuner is in hospital cut his leg and got infected might need to amputate the leg, so will be contacting Arthur from AJ racing (local Rotary expert) to tune the car for me one day. Need to find a dyno for him to tune it on first.

Also want to put the Rota's on when I have a gap

Thats all for now folks
