Nice one buddy

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Thanks Chaps.

Not really been far enough to tell, but it feels very quick. Pulls from no rev's with no hint of lag. Not dared look down at the boost gauge yet...

What are those widebands telling you ?

Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
Stephen Hawking - "The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."

Been looking at this grille; now i see it 'finished' i see where you were going with it. My only criticism is that i think the top rail needs to follow the line of the bonnet. It looks like something is missing

I doubt you see it much in the flesh I think the camera angle it low. If Andy was bothered about the look maybe a black ally fill in plate.

A great looking car can't wait to see it in the flesh

I think the bonnet could come down a couple mm at the front if possible, plus standing at normal height you wouldn't notice!

The bonnet isn't pulled down enough, but I agree that the grille and lights are slightly too low in the aperture. I may try and adjust it at some point.

I only have one wideband fitted at the moment and it's telling me that it's too lean at idle and rich pretty much everywhere else. *smiley*
