Dnk Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) After a couple of problems with the car not making any boost its now sorted and feels fantastic and no smoke Just waiting on a few parts to arrive so i can powder coat them and swap them over but for now heres the engine bay after a bit of a clean, still have the throttle body and some pipework to p/c then im done. Oh and fit the Trd strut brace and oil filler cap and fix the heater problem lol Edited December 10, 2009 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
