rear diffuser like a focus RS is cosmetic,rear diffusers only work in conjunction with more work flattening the rest of the underfloor with some kind of panelling

Dash project sounds interesting, would be worth taking plenty of photo's and doind a "how to" as an example. With all the work you are doing, what sort of power are you aiming for?

[pfennell 0]

will do, power to start with all im looking for is around 330-350 so i can learn more about turbos and management would like to be a tuning guru.

after that the skys the limit looking to the distant future 600bhp awd probs a twin vr6 in the back..my first plan was to put Phaeton W10 in the boot with a full space frame to house it but my local tuner wanted 10 grand just for the body mod this inc " rear floorpan totally cut out rear 1/4 panels cut to take a charge air cooler ect full frame all the way to the front and a fire wall thats all before buying the motor and drive train....

Great project. The decals on the red paint work, with the gold wheels look really good!

Looking forward to the updates, espacially your dash build, i'l be interested to see how you go about it, and what clocks you'll use.
