Nice work dude! any chances of a sound clip?

ive been lookin at a set for myself, was thinkin of sticking some trumpets on it!

The scoop looks nice, but might look better with a matching bonnet. not a fan of a colour mish mash myself

What sort of price is that lot? I've been quoted £1900 including ECU fitted. What else will that need besides the uprated headgasket?

i was actually going down that route then decided against the turbo idea, as i have no luck with turbos ha

atm throttle bodies been fitted, aftermarket Omex 500 ecu, and some 260 degree cams, i really don't know what to expect power wise fingers crossed hey :) shall let you guys know :)
