I totaly agree and thats what i have done, im +3'o now with no CFs and getting a bigger nozzle on the way so hopefully push it a bit more.

Im just tempted for when it goes on the rollers to push it highter and dyno from a cooler engine, for better results.

:) Just don't forget Nick that in the early days I ended up with lower RR figures through having too much methanol which was bogging things down.

Yes i would still do the WMI with only water, its amazing how much it cools your engine down. Pop the hood after a ragging and the inlet is freezing, and i mean that litral.

That is very impressive. I have a thick insulator gasket between my intake mani and the engine and its still very warm when you stop.

235g/sec is the one to beat. Don't let Probee keep that K04 crown, although something tells me he won't have it on for long.;)

hehe i dont think i will ever flow that much, even with my map pipe and dynatwist mod im looking at the same figs, need to compair boost levels, and i think im flowwing the same air just with less boost.

Past 2 night have been busy making a cover for where my battery used to be. Looks much better in the flesh tho. Crap camera.

I also sorted out some of the meth wireing as i put it in a bit quick to get it working and setup Due to the possitap when i pulled off the map plug the wire broke, resolderd and reinforced.

Why i didnt solder it on im still not sure!!!! The taps just looked to cool not to use i guess.

Then i got to making the cover, i used a sheet of alli and alot of cutting, re cutting and bending. I bent over most of the edges that where near pipes etc just incase it moved and chaffed.

This is the finished piece, as i said pics dont give it its due.

Whilst i had the polisher out i repolished both HID's and remounted the off side one back on a bracket!!

Tomorro will see the install finished off and the inlet repollished, and maybe the intter dynatwist housing, as well as a CIA tidy up. All this on a car iv been plannig to sell for months.. Crazy Eh?!? Just wanted it "finished"

Should be looking good for inters.

Yep as Aaron said well done mate on the win!!! Get anyone wanting to take you up on your asking price of £12k then...... ;)

HAHA no.. But you dont ask you dont get!!! I have a spread sheet and based on realistic selling prices for all the bits i could get more. so i might strip it.. Its tempting.. But its a finished project and i want to sell it as a project The seats alone push the price up a grand, when cheeky chappers sold hers for 1200..Selling them on there own alone knocks the price down alot. Std there going 8-9k, iv spent 7.5 on it so someone is going to get a bargin if they where thinking about doing it from scratch!! If not, ill strip it. If iv had no intrest by edition ill take all the bits off!!

Awsome pic Aaron!!

Was very nice to meet you, im glad i had my Trophys on diplay so i didnt get voted for again, would have hated to have taken first place again :cartman: You car was very clean mate, as Aaron has said, you have OCD to put Aarons and mine to shame!! Hope to see you again at the next show :)

Yer OCD, i think you are right but you guys put alot of effort in elsewhere too, like those engine bays for a start, not sure i could polish all that metal work like yours, good luck with the sale tho!!
