So after buying her back from Anton, I undid the changes that were made... Also removed the boost pipes, Overflow bottle, Radiator ducting and catch can to be Powder coated sand paper black.. Will repaint the valve cover back to purple!

Removed the powermods Management system finally... Really was not enjoying that, I purchased a Shinobi S2-Pro which is made locally.. Should arrive tomorrow and I will start wiring everything up, then see how this management is vs past experiences.

So management is installed and running great, I am still busy with the tune..

Previous owner decided to take the car for a remap, the guy removed the one wastegate spring for the precision which went missing... Collecting a new one tonight and will refit.. Then tune timing..

Also busy with a small and simple sound install as the rear seats have been removed..

Will snap some pics this weekend and next week hit FR for a dyno night and see where we are currently.

Sound install done

System Details

Pioneer AVH-165DVD
JBL 6.5" Splits up front
RF 8" P1 Sub
Audio bank NAB 4960.4k Amp

The little 8" works well, sounds nice and clean. Reason for sub choice is that spacing is very limited when doing a cover there, dont want to raise the panel to high, would look out of place.

Pics of install

Not sure if I mentioned that I got much better quality injector plugs for my Denso injectors :mrgreen:

Image

And lastly, I lost reverse gear on Monday night :facepalm: But Jas is hooking me up with a CA box and we will swop the Bell-housing across... Remove that quick last night, will hopefully have a fresh one in tonight, meaning tomorrow night I can put her on the rollers and see where I am at mapping wise :mrgreen:
