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.
I was able to plumb the intercooler and get the BOV bracket welded on all in one day, cheeRS Fehlbie. The car runs Autronic Direct Fire CDI. T3 - Housings are standard; might have modified internals, the power output/torque curve will show all. By tomorrow there will be updated photos; probably without the nose cone again, however I have test fitted it again with excellent results. Exhaust to go then Dyno time! ....and a delay is expected before driving due to lack of roll cage completion...

Thanks Sean and Paul...A bit of polish/tidy the loom and fit the bonnet; it will look acceptable. I hope it performs equally.

I can strongly recommend a flex joint in the 3" exhaust to cut down on vibrations throught the car while stretching its legs[;^)]Which Im sure will be a regular occurence[%]In the very near future[:p]

Looking great Mark.
Are you not running a breather vent from the back of the rocker cover ?
I had mine blocked initially and it caused all sorts of issues for my engine.
