Well i suppose the brand and power figures gave it away really, but should give Phill's a good run for his money when done:p

In about a year Tim I need to get my handling and my BRAKES sorted first! My lil' LC brakes just won't cut the mustard but yes BT is on the cards at some point :)

Ha... as mentioned, secret didn't last long buddy!

I knew you'd spill ;)

Awesome though, just awesome! Can't wait to see it take shape over the coming months even if it is slower progress than you'd like.

We're all in the same boat, mine won't be 100% by the end of this year but we have others things to spend money on unfortunately.

I said you would need a new flywheel
Unfortunately i dont think water meth on your setup will be producing 2871 power, so i win:p
Do you still want a hand fitting all this stuff to yours too?

Not deff getting a new flywheel just looking at the single mass. oh water meth will produce another 1000 bhp so i win :p

I doubt it, will you also be looking into rods soon??
My uncle emigrated to US so might get him to repack items to try and get around import tax

Took a trip out last night with cupra barn to go and pick this up, most of the bits bar engine internals ready for big power
There is a slight difference on opinion on the injectors between a few people on whether they are 500cc or 550cc
The kit consists of turbo, exhaust manifold, 2 pipes for choice of inlet and a free filter but wont be using it, oil and water lines, injectors mentioned above, downpipe and a race cat (unknown cell rating) a decat and 2 top vibratechnics engine mounts. Also a custom charge pipe to follow the same route i wanted to take for intercooler pipework.
Anyway the pics
