This is how the car now sits at the minute. Not very low yet as it still need jacking up a few times and some work underneath. The exterior of the car makes me sad in this condition.

There is a picture of it with the intercooler. Intercooler is staying there but oil cooler is going to be moved. Not sure where yet but I will have a play tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

Here is a picture of the side where it has been smoothed.

Got my old coilpack on too see where I could run all the wires. Got ht leads on. Also coilpack is upside down for a much smoother look.

This is where the oil cooler is going. I had too cut 2 slots in the rad support to get the lines to fit in.

Cheers guy. Payday Friday so boost pipes shall be ordered. And finally get my coilpack of a patient member off here :).

It's a turbonetics turbo with external wastegate. Running near its max so see how long it lasts. Start off with 350 and slowly work it up. Next on the list is some cams. 268 I think.

Bit of a homemade loom. Includes oil pressure, boost and wideband.

Pushed it out from being storage in its hideaway garage. Haha

Quick snap shot of how the bay is at the minute! Still need a bit of tidying, power steering lines hiding etc and a few wires hidden. But it's getting there. Slowly.
