well i havent posted pics of the hog lateley but i thought i would after the torrid year the blue pig has had.

so after the heart transplant and every thing seems to be going ok i took her to work and carried out the usaly sunday ritual of give the car a clean and also treating her to a coat of maquires glass coat of wax, any way here she is in all her glory.



and some of the interior displaying the new dash covering.. plus new afr gauge ect oh and non working tacho.



and yes i kinow the engine and bits need a clean plus a new air filter but that will do for now, oh but notice the bling IC

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

looks stunning hoggy
yes your right about spit and pollish in the engine bay

iam a shade concerned about the air filter placement
i would use an avonbar green one, much smaller and place it in the engine bay higher up, making it much more of an easier life for it ...... just a thought buddy

cheers guys , yes you are right ben but got a longer intake hose to get the air filter next to the alty but alas with the IC hose coudnt get it fit soi i could close the bonnet, but were she is fitted she does get some nice cool air in although does need a clean out quiet often.

but she does need a new one realy.

yes el potter she has had a major overhaul since then , new sills floor pans ect, all body kit removed to repair rear 1/4's ect.

also different engine to, she was a high CR 1380 turbo now a 8.2 cr 1310.

just cant wait to get her on the rollers to see what she will do, but im hoping for about 170bhp on 16psi but we will see.

just trying to get some miles under her belt at the minute, now coming up to 100 so just a few more 100 to go.

i would imagine more than that at 16 psi ? iam budgeting for around 140 bhp on 1275 running 12 - 14 psi boost, mind i have a BENROSS head, and matched turbo exhaust, elbo etc etc, p2 cam blah blah blah.
