Car should have been on the road by now.
Delays are specifically related to slippage of delivery on the behalf of manufacturers. I am used to it, so I am not surprised; fairly frustrating.

Yeah I am not a fan of delays - i have money delays, the car just seems to sit there for months at a time untouched.. it's all part of the game though. It will be worth the wait for you Mark

Test fitted the cooler last night and have purchased all of the necessary pipe/hoses this morning and will make the brackets properly this weekend. Better photos to follow... It fits beautifully, luckily[88][:I]

....looks weird without the nose cone[B)] Looks like it has no intercooler with it on[;^)] ....and it still has plenty of space for air flow.

Looking good now.
That RS nose cone sure does give that extra room to move.

This man doesn't mess around, good to hear.
I'm very keen to see how you go !
Are you running distributorless ignition ?
That turbo looks larger than mine.. is it a hybrid / hiflow or something ?
Thanks,
Damion.
