Bit more progress, exhaust is made, door cards fitted, made a start on the dash board just waiting for the digital dash to finish that, drilled the a panels, mini loom is nearly finished just got to make the rear half, also have found an intercooler that should fit under the bonnet!

Decided to chuck the other dash in the bin and came up with this. Also got the rad mounted, I gave up on trying to buy a intercooler that would fit under the bonnet but found one the same size as the other one I had mounted but this one is a twin pass and made the boost track a lot shorter. I've made a start on the coolant pipes, but I won't have any pics for a while as I lost my temper with my mobile phone and threw it against the wall.

Managed to get a pic of the rad mounted, just waiting on some aluminium sheet to make up some ducting.

So the fabrication of the ducting didn't go well ended with a pile of scrap aluminium sheet. Managed to wire up the fans and took couple random pics
