  1. Have the same gauge and pod set up looks very OEM dont it, had to get that vdo gauge from the states though, where did you order your new charger out of interest?

     

    I got mine from USA - Was only £40 including delivery (bargain!).

     

    Where did you connect the 12v bulb feed too? Which wires?

    Also where are you hooking the pipe work on for the boost reading?

  3. Update time!

     

    Not done too much over Christmas.

     

    Done some test fits, ordered more parts etc...

    Waiting till payday to order walbro fuel pump.

     

    Getting there now... Will probably have everything sorted by end of next month.


  4. So update on the car!

     

    Good news is that air filter is on order from US.

    $35 ordered it via a mate in USA and shipping via him to me as couldn't find anything new the UK at a reasonable price.

     

    Got the intake pipe back and have to say has been fabricated really well! Welds are amazing and will great under the bonnet!

    It's good enough considering all I had was a drawing from a mate in the USA. Bolts align and that's all that matters really!

     

    Also bought a catch can off VR6OC, so that's another item off the list!

    Next is to mock it all up so can measure what length belt I will need in advance of fitting.

     

    Hoping to get it fitted in a couple of weeks all being well!
