I have finally picked up the car after having the exhaust and new airbox fabricated. They did a great job on the exhaust which was then sent for ceramic coating. Just need to get motivated and install it!

That exhaust looks awesome! Looks like you have sensor bungs per cylinder.

Yes, its required for tuning. Also have one at each collector. I just installed it. Bolts up perfectly but I am a little concerned about noise at high rpm.

Admin Wow!
The goal is to annoy 5SGTE powered MR2's at higher than usual speeds. This is another piece in the puzzle. Hopefully I will be sub 1000kg/450hp. Here's hoping..

Yes, I have no doubt. I will run with my five year old tyres for a little while then upgrade in January, You may to another diet to keep up?!?! I would be running it in in a few weeks but the throttle body required some refining

Steve, it looks to good to be installed into your car.. no offence intended, It should be framed & hung on your wall! Looks fantastic!
Thanks mate, but I have something far better on my wall (thankyou!). I will be working on the headlights and finally fitting the battery this week. Hopefully the manifold will be available for pick up on Monday which is the final piece before it can be started again.
