I'll be up the garage tomorrow and I'll take some decent pics.

Also had some parcels today, some oil and my fuel pressure gauge so I can set the fuel reg :)

Just had a quick skim over the last few pages, looking excellent! That exhaust.manifold is so tidy :D if you don't mind me asking, is it an expensive build? Thinking of going forced induction over a biggerengine myself, turbo or supercharged, just trying to weigh up costs but can't seem to get a ballpark figure...

Turbo is the cheapest option if you consider the power gains, but still very expensive.

Yeah it's expensive hahah

On turbomini website it says you can do it on a buget of £600 I spent £400 on a nodiz system so you can see where this is going ;)
