Paul, your work never ceases to amaze me!

Today has been a welding day:



Just rear box and tail pipe to add.

Oh yeah

Very nice great work.

should sound very good

Finished of the manifold and downpipe this afternoon with the addition of the sample pipes. Also drilled and tapped the manifold at the flange for EGT thermocouples or alternative sample points:

Did you get the manifold bends anywhere local? Going to be getting some soon to make a manifold for my Kseries turbo project, and as I'm still a novice when it comes to Tig I may need some bits to practice on.

Working on the inlet today. Yes, it's the old one with new injector bosses

Trial fit of the throttle body. Second attempt as the first ran diagonally across the top of the turbo but too close to the heat for my liking.



The square headed plug on the TB is where the water injection nozzle is going, but that's not going to clear the bonnet, so I need to drop the TB a bit.

I'm going to take the loom inside the car otherwise I'm not going to have access to the fuse box, plus it will make a tidier job. Anyone else done this?

I've been doing the same with the wiring loom on my car at the moment, using the modular boxes from Vehicle Wiring Products. Depending on where you want to mount the box a lot of the wires need extending.

I have a look at the fuse boxes at VWP.

In other news, a plenum air box!



Should have de-rusted the old bit of steel I used, but that should do

I used the 20 mini blade fuse box from VWP on my other project, it was easy to put together and it's nice and compact.

Paul you are a genius! Looking good

I fancied a change from making effects pedals and changing nappies so decided on getting the ECUs ready for these cars, Real Time Clock modules going in both for timestamped data logging and the knock module going in Papa S's, also adding some components initially left out for water/meth injection.

I better get back on the turbo plumbing etc. then, so that we can start the wiring.

I seem to have lost 4 months building vintage bikes, downsizing the camper and trying to maintain 100 miles a week on the push-bike.

Looks like the inside of a zx spectrum

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!
