Well it runs better than I thought it would. We had a couple minor problems with it pipe work blowing off cos I haven't bead rolled the ends and the waste gate not holding shut over 16psi So it made 287kw at 6000rpm and 17-18psi with a lot left in it once we fix a few issues Here's a shitty phone vid of the last 2 runs

had to make a stainless steel coolant line to feed the back of the cylinder head and machined the turbo manifold to make sure it was perfectly flat and also machined out the injector plate to allow the an6 fitting to fit for the return line

Well after a bit of debating the rocker covers are staying polish (thank god lol) spent some more time on it today got the front sway bar in and started sorting out the fuel lines in the engine bay and coolant lines for the turbo and got all the brake lines in the rear of the car finished off

After some debate with neil about his rockercover if we should paint them body colour / black or polish them I gave them a quick polish to see what they look like I think we leave them polished whats everyone else's opinions on matter
