Hi All,
Just want to say thanks, the amount of problems I have resolved in my Turbo build over the last couple of weeks has been unreal due to trawling through past posts... there really is a wealth of knowledge on this forum so thanks!

Just thought post some pics if my new intercooler pipes that Ive been working on today, also my EDIS unit arrived so Im going to get started on my Megaolt install in the new year, thanks to a bit of advice from Tom I looked into the benifits of megajolt and sold the Mirco Dynamics unit on Ebay...
Cheers, Mark

well heres whats been keeping me busy over the last couple of weeks.

The pipes a 60mm pipes, I just bought them and custom cut them to fit the front mounted intercooler... air flow should be a little bit better than the scaffold poles!!!

She got re-shelled the original was past repair or so I was told... so the previous owner took the easy route and got another shell... what can you do?

Nice install, who supplied the pipes?

Id love to re re shell it but I neither have the time or the money to purchase a heritage shell!!! Although I may think about doing it in the future!!!
I got the pipes from Broadside performance worked out what I needed approx, got a couple of Silicone hoses and started measuring and cutting!!!

Oh yeah! Its going to look a bit more MK1 with the bonnet and surround!!! its cheaper than the re re shell.. just test fitted today!!

Its closer than a mk1 than mine though...one day I will own one...

You should get yourself sorted with some black plates, makes all the difference to how old it looks.

Its legal and the police hate them...even more reason to do it .Lol

Keep up the good work.

Yeah I was thinking that alright... the black and silver plates are a good idea... I think over here if its registered as a vintage as mine will I can get away with the old style plates.. well Im going to give it a go!!!
