I see. You can get 2 x 30x30cms for rear and 2 x 30x 45cms for the front for £15.35 delivered.

Not bad... Thwy is Laminx better?
 
what shade and colour did you purchase gaz? black 1, black 2, or grey 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6? id like exactly the same as yours :)

also as my car is in the garage, can any tell me how much id need to do the front headlamps?
 
I like the brake lights, a bit too dark but I like the idea, maybe 10% on the brake lights imo. Nice car tho fella!
 
Seeing as yours is an AMK... what have you done with the EGT probe as the port has been blocked on this turbo...

<tuffty/>

Assuming you still haven't got it mapped surge is the least of your issues... don't get hung up on stuff like this until its been mapped... if done right you won't get surge...

thanks mate im saving now for the rods , manifold , then fitting it all and getting it mapped no point paying twice mate.

bought the toyo intercooler last week so getting rid of the 3 intercoolers see what changes when fitted

well just posting to say im nearly ready to do my build iv waited to long for this car is running sweet at the min after a fello member fix me up a base map that produces 270 bhp.

my car was overboost so i took the time to turn down the preload on the uprated actuater and hayyy presto 20 psi and hold to the red line.

this iv got to get in the next month before sending my car off is

piston rings
head gasket set
big end bearings
oil and filter
manifold
 
Very good mate.

You managed to get ya front bumper on yet?
 
ye its on pal not finished tho ha needs triming bleeder going to get some 90 degree bends welded on some time tho and now iv moved the horn no room for both i took one off and im left with a very quiet one lol
 
Dave managaed to measure the brackets yet? so does the bumper sit ok with the silicone elbows?
 
Tinted headlights and headlight eyebrows? :undwech:

You must have lost some boost due to pressure drop having 3 intercoolers in series!!
