Are you the same guy who did a caddy build thread on ukmkivs ?

Didn't this used to be running a turbocharged VR6 lump?

In fact thinking about it it's the same username (power nut) ??

few bits this afternoon.
only thing i could modify fit without cutting floors but works great lol

quick intake pipes knocked up

next chopped some intercooler pipes buzzed them on to intercooler

intercooler in pipe (space getting tight lol)

hopefully remove front pannel and fit a new one as well
