blue95 0 Posted December 1, 2008 Sukh you've done a cracking job there mate, looks like it'll be a monster on the road, glad your gonna enjoy it for a bit before you sell her though! After seeing yours i should have been put of by the amount of headaches and hassle you had gettiing it to work... but instead i'm starting to fit 4wd into mine! will need a few basic questions answered at some point about the rear end as i've dove in head first without thinking about exavtly what i need! lol Cheers fellas, Ned to get it ready for the MOT now, probably will take it to your guy Andy, don't think it will be for a while tho. As for the conversion, sounds like you've done pretty much what I did LOL...best way IMO!! If you get stuck give us a shout. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted December 1, 2008 Nice work Sukh. The bay looks very OEM+ I love it. P.S. Sell the house, keep the car ;) Deliberately tried to keep it looking OEM with the black hoses, have a stainless heat shield for the filter, not sure though as its quite bling LOL As for selling the house...probably worth less than the car LOL! if it could sell that is!

TBH honest most engine movement will on the front, less still if you have VT mounts fitted (hopefully). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just wondering if you have managed to get your in dash water temp guage working and if so how accuratley and also how you have achieved this. thanks ! ollie Not had it up to temp yet TBH> How did you wire yours? My QPE temp output loom had 2 wires, one was wired to the engine for earth, the other to the original sensor wiring? Have heard of peeps having to use a resistor, Ben said I would not need this. I can provide more info if needed tho. regards Sukh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

junkie 0 Posted April 27, 2009 How long you had it on as it will change sound as time goes on getting deeper. Is it straight through then no boxes on? Looks good Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted April 28, 2009 How long you had it on as it will change sound as time goes on getting deeper. Is it straight through then no boxes on? Looks good Just had it a week....straight thru system with an oversize back box, the turbo really quietens it down. Loudest noise is the turbo and forge 007p :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
