Business and work take priority at this stage Turbo is getting the compressor cover polished up by me in my spare time and ill see if im going to use this shell or not....
Yeah that shell has had more hits than Elvis and the repair was pretty shit as well as back yard repairs. Ill probably jump on the roof and bin it lol.
Works

The car is not a secret, i have told anyone any spec they want to know. The simple fact is, It's my car, i built it and i'll show and tell as much or as little as i want, i have no hunger for praise, i dont need you to tell me its good. You make fun of me each time i dont show pics of the turbo setup, but you know how it goes, you must have seen it, so whats the big deal? There isnt one, the turbo is hidden, and showing pics would completely defeat the perpose of hiding it in the first place. The only reason i added to this thread was to encourage others to see what can be done with a bit of elbow grease rather than cash, you should give it a go sometime, you might surprise yourself
Allmtr, the lads at that full boost website took an interest in the car and started a thread, there are pics there.

Also, you think I hand out all the cash for someone else to build my car? You obviously dont know much about it.
As I said, take it easy, its the internet and people make jokes and comments from time to time
