thanks everyone for the kind comments on here and on facebook!

i will put together a build thread, theres some more photos on my website on front page www.jamesfawcett.co.uk too, while i was building it i was either at work or in the garage, so didnt have much time to put together a build thread,

here is a photo from yesterday, the limited slip diff is really helping get through the snow, but its difficult to drive in the snow, having to set off everywhere in third gear at the moment! and if it comes on boost when driving, you lose all traction lol!


keeping the intake temperatures down lol!

Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.
