Guess its my way of saying the widey is a awesome looking bit of kit :beer

Haha it's alright, there's no way in hell I would be able to afford it anytime soon! Besides, Jas would be silly to sell it.

Yeah. It would take severe hard ship or a over the top offer for me to sell Blacky....

Ok so I missed the boat as far as the calander is concerned. But thought Id post some pics I took today.

And as far as the car goes Im getting a new ex manifold soon so it should make more boost earlier in the rev range :) Cant wait :D

Oh and I uploaded a new vid to youtube.

Make sure you have the sound up!

They came out good JAS. A photo to show how long its been working on my car.

None of the 4 buildings in the backround have been built yet, + they spent about a year banging in piles before starting them which was fun.

So over the last few weeks my car has been feeling a bit slower than it was. I figured I was just getting used to the power. But when I pulled the exhaust manifold off I found a very large crack almost all the way around the turbo flange!

I pulled it off because Im got this from 4gpwr :D

And yes Ill be putting a heat shield over the steering box and lines etc

How do you not cook the underside of your bonnet Jas?
There's no shield and a massive turbo...

Oh, and what did 4gpwr charge for the new mani?

Ive got a turbo beanie for it. Keeps the heat in the ex housing very well. I can touch the bonnet with my hand after a good run and its fine :)

Not telling :P
But I will say for the time and quailty of work in it, it was well priced :)
Couldn't be happier with it :)

is that an oxy sensor on it?

You may need a heatsheild between no 1 runner and the compressor outlet as they seem very close in the pic

Jas is concentrating on the exhaust side of things at the moment . He has been looking into different options for the indexing of the compressor housing.
