Ill flip my down pipe up side down and fire it up to see whats what.


A video is definately required of it running. Why the decision to bin the metty manifold? curiosity as to whether there were any power gains?

Are the fans fitted to the front splitter for extra down force?

Are you going to run the exhaust to the rear or keeping it at the front?

Pointing out the bonnet will be impressive going down the strip if flames start popping out

I went round and he turned it over without the ignition on by mistake.
When he fired it up the was a significantly larger flame than the one in the video! And a black mark on the floor!!!

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Personally I'd lag the whole thing, rather than tart around with the welds.

Ive blended all the welds and now all i need to do is lag it all up, im just waiting for my steel tie wraps to arrive. Started doing all the wiring behind my dash today. It was like spag bol junction so im trying to simplify it all. I also took order of my adjustable temp switch for my fans, no more pissing about with switches lol.
