Very nice? you could even put a SS bar on it so it covers the cooler. I don't think you can tuck those coolers up any higher. 350rwkw ish ??

Going to change the valve springs and change the head gaskets. Should be able to get somewhere near or over 400rwkw's. Dale from Castle Hill Exhaust will be tuning it. Need to upgrade the clutch as well. I'm going to lift the intercooler a bit and the rear will sit lower as i will be tubbing it a bit

You will certainly be into it for over 400rwkw!!! Good Stuff. I reckon you will need 14psi for that but it will honk. That will put you into the 10's if you can steer. So I guess you have a Z-grip coming? And some CV joints for the diff?

Duke: Dunno about using a Zgrip, looking at some US clutches atm and some GForce rear end bits. Az: Yeah over 400 will be pushing it but I have a spare motor and it'll give me a good excuse to go with a iron 402 Woggster: Cooler will be painted black and moved up a little. Tubbing will only be squaring up or whatever minor stuff is needed to get as big a tyre as possible under it. Coco: What more do you want to know. Stock motor with 180000ks, manual exec with 76mm garrett turbo kit, 600 x 300 x 75 intercooler, Magnaflow regulator, single 044 with ebay surge that has mounts for 2 044's when needed, Single 3 inch exhaust, 60 lb injectors (not fitted until tune) This is the fuel setup (excuse the phone pic) http://www.oke020.com/store/images/3420.jpg

Malwoods are another option but don't like the abuse as much. Though they are a better daily driving clutch from all accounts. I've never personally driven one. I had a Z-grip before hand at it was a bit of a tart occasionally to drive, but it didn't fail on me and I was pretty nasty to it. The GForce CV's are stuff are awesome. When you get some spare cash the carbon fibre tailshafts are pretty cool as well.

Taking it to get tuned on Wednesday at CHE. Haven't had a chance to upgrade head gaskets, clutch or another 044 so about 350rwkw is what I'm aiming for. Moving/selling house this months so got a bit on. Once the mayhem has settled then the mods will begin...
