Looks great.

Looks like a couple of the hoses are kinked, probably worth trying to sort that as it may cause you problems.


Does look very nice, well done :)

would just echo what andy says, the hose on the intercooler looks a bit iffy

Looks awesome mate.
What's the starter motor from? Does it have a solenoid built in, or use a mini wing
Mounted solenoid?

Very nice thorough build!

Hi there Stretch, Steve was building my engine just after yours, it was the black one!, your motor looks very impressive great spec and a nice neat install as well, like the rocker cover colour a lot!. Like you I am using the gt17, did you use the saab front pipe for the exhaust to turbo?

hi oli79, i bought a new, old stock front pipe for the saab 9000, it only cost me 99p plus £10.00 p&p .LOL i used some of the front pipe, it was 55mm diameter, it would not go between the subframe and gearbox the rest i bought from jetex,50mm i cut it to shape, steve (welded it up for me) perfect fit.

*tongue*
