Guys just though I would post a couple of photos of my sons car they only finished painting and reassembling it at lunch time today.

Its still has to have a final polish and the mags have to be stripped and painted (Shadow Charcoal Chrome colour and cleared) this will be in a week or so.
Anyway here we go some image the quality isn't the best my old digital isn't the best.
Cheers

At this stage we are only running a basic setup.
Garrett GT35/82R (water-cooled)
6Boost exhaust manifold.
Turbosmart 50mm Wastegate.
Turbosmart 50mm BOV
Turbosmart FPR800 fuel regulator.
Wolf V500 ECU with a Wolf Boost Controller.
3" exhaust system from turbo to bummer
Serge tank and Bosch external pump.
Bosch XSpurt 1000cc / 90lb injectors
CamTech Cam CT006-845 with 114 LSA
Crow Valve Springs and Come Molly Retainers and Collette locks.
MLS –Head Gasket
Hi-Stall torque converter fitted now 2800-3000
----
We are running 10 psi boost of 98ron fuel and its making good torque and bulk power on the road.
80% of the mechanical and modifications plus all the Dyno work and tuning is done solely but “Lee at L.G.AUTOMOTIVE in Townsville “ he is a wizard and has the magic touch.
In the new year we are intending on an engine rebuild using Forged 8.5:1 pistons and Forges conrods with some head work in the port area and combustion area then we will run a higher boost the aim is to run around 320 to 350 rwkw. Again this will depend on what Lee comes up with.
As the builds takes place I think we might ad updates lest see how we go.
Cheers.
Ok here is a couple of quick snaps with my old digital camera not the best but they are ok.
