Update time:
Most exciting update is I've refurbished my wheels. Gone for orange and they looks pretty damn smart, well I'm bound to say that
It's properly dirty from Knockhill, so I'll give it a proper clean and get much better photos during the week.
Had a go with trying to sort out my intake with Jonny the other day and that didn't quite work out. Battled for a while to get it to fit properly without the bend getting squashed and it's not touching the master cylinder, so it should be all good once its sorted. Other issues was the pipe i got from the reducer to the bend was marginally too big, so we'll come back to that at the weekend. Anyway, once it's all sorted I want it to look like this:
I've got some 20mm spacers for the back, just need to buy a tyre and then that will be sorted.
Got a front mount intercooler on the way as well, so need buy all the pipe and bends for that. FFS!!!
So was all looking good, but picked a chronic boost leak at knockhill. My D seal is split, so instant gasketed that didn't work and the pipe from the turbo to the top mount had a slit in the protection part on the top, so may have split the pipe as well, but couldn't tell. Hoping it's one of those. Pellowe noticed some soot down the back, so I'm really REALLY hoping I haven't blown the gasket.
