Scrumptious. How much power are you hoping to get out of this?

No real power figure in mind as I've still got a small 'Disco Spud' on it. I'm after PHAT midrange and response, hence the stroker bottom end.
However I give myself 6-12 months before wanting more, but with all the supporting mods already done this will be as simple as upgrading the turbo and putting in a new tune.

No oil or dirt please. Enough of that all over the floor already. I give him a month until he wants more herbs. Think a few other bolt INS may be required for sustained higher power output. All the engine work is done though. Heck, i am pretty excited to get this thing fired up socage imagine what Kris is thinking

Well what a relief!

After an issue with a fuel supply line leaking on thursday night, James (Totenkopf) and I, with the help of Doug (Falcon) started my eng for the 1st time today.

Just gotta tie up a few loose ends and it'll be going out for its 1st drive this evening for a bit of a run in and to get it back to my place.

Again what a relief, I can now kick back and relax for a bit.

more seriously,
thats good news,well done,enjoy.

Awesome news mate! I hope the run-in goes well as it'll be great to see it on the road and out of the shed!

Failed trying to bring the car home last weekend due to a charging issue that turned out to be just a missing fuse, good one idiot. Got it home yesterday and its had its first tub in about 10 months, I forgot how good it looks.

Anyway just wanted to say a HUGE thanks to Totenkopf for the use of his shed, fresh ideas and moral support for the last 4 months.

The plan now is to leave it and have a rest for a few weeks while I think about my plan of attack for tuning.

Looks the goods Xmr.

really clean

Very very cool man - There was a pretty car hidden under the dust! Can it actually get into your garage or does the front bumper get into a fight with the slab ;)?

Yeah its pretty nasty getting into the garage, I'll try the other side I don't think its as bad.
