Couple of photo's to keep this alive
Got this back from Dougie @ TRIX a while back and here it is:





Messy but functional:


DDI Dials:


Yellow Headlights:


So apart from a few small hiccup's everythings great! Averaging around 27MPG and running 10psi - Boost is really addictive and it surprises a lot! In love with the sound of the screamer pipe!
The main hiccup was getting it running after it had been filled up with fuel - Dougie came to the rescue and spent his sunday working on it (Cant thank him enough for this, the man is an absolute lifesaver!) It turned out the uprated fuel pump in the tank from a donor car had been wired in with scotchlocks!
The most recent hiccup was also due to the previous owner of the donor. The car wouldn't start and in the end traced it down to a oil pressure sensor (blue one) that was jammed with a cunt load of thread tape, Swapped it out & started first time!

There will be more photo's and a full spec list in the next update, At the moment its on daily duties and the plans for the near future are to get her back into Trix for a service, start cleaning up the engine bay & keep my eyes peeled for some new wheels
