Brizey,
Isn't it a Twin Cam Escort remote booster or something? I remember it looking like one and had Ford stamped in it.

I may have put enigne bay pics in orginal cruise pics I posted up.

how does the van go with that???

you running standard boost around 9psi??

if you get an intercooler in there you may be able to push it up to 14??

that would be a good sleeper! nice work...

brian pretty much lives with me so il try and explain how they have done.

it looks like they have just cut off 2 inches either side of the bumper and rounded it to look like the original bumpers pretty simple they havent shaved the front bumpers but the back is shaved meaning that it doesnt have any bumpers this makes the car look way more tuff with smooth round edges.

il get him to post if im wrong but hes lazy.[88][88][88]
