i bit of an update car now has a microtech lt8s it made 256rwhp on 11psi (which is 20rwhp more on 4 psi less) car is heeps more responsive fuel pump is maxed out now, so im getting a 044 and surge tank mounted under the car and a crow tx2 and valve springs in the next few months (well as soon as i sell some parts) a intake pipe was fabricated and the afm has been ditched so the car is running alot better and doesnt stall the battery is now in the boot, so the boxed in sides are goin to get re-done, i will put some pics up soon ive tidied up a heep of wiring in the bay and next up the towers are goin to be getting filled and sprayed and chopping that battery tray out (its not going to be crazy cos we are doin it with the motor in, just want to make it neat) will get some pics up soon

i didnt realise ur runing it on 4psi less than before i thought it was just making the extra 20hp. on 15pounds. if u need a hand with anything let me know. as it sucks not be able to tinker with my car cos i dont have it . when i get it back come over and well move the fuse box and hide the headlight wiring. im making a huge list now. cos iv decided to enter it next year for motavation or powercruise... when i showed laura ur car she said"wow i didnt think it would look this good" and too think u were gonna pull it out.
