Yeah baby yeah. Std SR = 1 x 60mm TB at the butterfly. Custom ITB's = 4 x 48mm. Quite an improvement I'd say.

Gonna run them open for racing. Possibly add a plenum later. The guy who done them for me is working on a different design so this is kinda temporary..

Thanks man.

Some further updates.

Last moments of the factory SR20DE

Image

ZHR helping out pulling the motor

Image

couple of minutes later :lol: :lol:

Image

Engine bay in need of a deep clean!!

Image
Image

So the first phase of cleaning begins

Image
Image

and then off course there is this little battery acid problem!!

Image

So some sanding was in order

Image

Then some primer

Image

and some paint

Image

and she's as good as new... :D :D

Image



Battery tray didn't get off scott free either. Also needed some sanding

Image

primer

Image

and I decided on some bronze paint

Image

A close up of the bronze paint. I really like it. Would look good on a centre consol too me thinks.

Image

And while I was in a painting mood the water resevoir also got in the way :shock:

Thanks WM. (Especially for changing that avatar - Lol :lol: )
It's not really translucent. Had to add an external water level indicator to the resevoir later. Pics are somewhere.

But the paint came from a hobby shop. It's that Tamiya stuff. I'm sure the plastic interior paints would work just as well if not better.
