DaveR Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Looking very indeed, John. I'm really looking forward to seeing it all together, as I'm sure you are! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 Thanks for all the support. Really looking forward to dropping this in now. I've just been out in the garage for the last hour or so, and made up all my wastegate lines from braided Teflon and put them all in Thermo-sleeve. I've tucked the lines behind the engine mount bracket away from any direct heat, but I'm hoping with the amount of DEI Titanium heat wrap on the manifold and downpipe in conjunction with the Thermo-sleeve, everything will stay nice and cool.

Hammer Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 That's incredible work mate. What you've done with that car is just awesome, a real inspiration. That turbo looks HUGE, it will drag people off the pavement as you drive past. Top work, looking forwards to seeing the figures it makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
