Cheers white grey close enough lol but they really stand out in the bay and look good! lol the red plenum looks good too, but i prefer the polished ones Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

here are a few pics of some one with a decent VL, found these on other sites as well, looks interesting to see what else he has done to it. http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...Picture069.jpg (http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e296/Macovl/?action=view¤t=Picture069.jpg) http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...Picture070.jpg (http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e296/Macovl/?action=view¤t=Picture070.jpg) well i find it funny that the last pic which shows the extractors has the o2 sensor on the 6th cylinder exhaust outlet, find it funny but i have seen a few types with that setup, strange. TB setup looks pretty good though. very neat. 8/10

if you have extractors it really should be at the collector, i.e near the end of the extractors where all the pipes meet into 1 bunch.

intresting... do you rekon it would affect anything having it on the 6th outlet rather then the collector?

well if your 6th piston is running bad then the o2 sensor will think the whole car is runnig bad and will try and rectify it, but it could also go the other way round to0, the 6th piston could be runng tops and the car runs rough. should be at the coloector so it can see what the motor is doing not just part of. but from the word it has a aftermarket ECU and is just left there to plug hole i guess OR keeep it looking legal.
