leelbuk Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Does look nice Where did you get you heat shielding in the end? Merlin Motorsport? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey. Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Does look nice Where did you get you heat shielding in the end? Merlin Motorsport? Which heat shield Lee? The one at the rear on the bulkhead? If so Lee p sorted me out with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leelbuk Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Yeah thats the one - it cost a fair bit from Merlin but might be due to it being branded. I need some more to make an airbox out of - do you mind me asking roughly how much it cost from Lee P? Wish I had a black engine bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey. Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Cheers for your comments guys, makes the hours spent on it all worth it, anybody who thinks a single build isn't hard work, it is! An it makes you appreciate other peoples work more too. Lee I can't remember a price, it was not cheap but not too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always helps me out with ideas and inspiration to pull my finger out when i read through peoples threads That's nice too hear matey, thanks. Thing is you look at some of the builds on here and you think, they look great, but you can't understand all the little bits that take time to sort out and tidy! I don't regret doing it for a second, the pockets nearly empty, but I can't take it with me'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway Motorsport Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Great work on the engine bay, color choices really good, makes it look clean and simple at the same time whilst you even have most of the stock items in there... Very nice.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey. Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 It's been epic, that's all I can say, as above I would have loved to get a inlet mani to tidy things up on that side, but I'm pleased how it looks for the minute! Mot early next week then book up mapping! Oh and paint in between that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey. Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 After a long journey i finally got the car mapped today, thanks to all those involved and also met a few new faces. It was all going well up antill 1.3 bar when it started to miss, so for the minute its sits at 586hp and 530 trq. It goes like a rocket, so next step is get the paint sorted next week and sort a nigley small oil leak, and then order up some coil packs and back off to the dyno for some more boost, but at the minute its plenty quick enough.

Bailey. Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Cheers guys, I love it, plenty of power for the minute, so no rush to get her back up for mapping again, I just want to get it back on the road all painted up and enjoy it for a while, it's been a long hard build!
