Just wondering........ How are you going to mount your int. cooler? I can see some thick pipes going up but where do they go?

The speed and perfection you have, I'm sure you'll have it finished in two weeks. The force is strong within you.....


René


René,
Its located right above the engine. I cut the mini roof and then am using the custom carbon roof that Rogue made me to funnel the air into the intercooler. As well it serves dual purpose to cool the engine as well. I will try and get a pict of it for you here soon.

Its gonna be real close. Keeping my fingers crossed that I dont have any problems firing up the engine.

Thanks guys he's coming together.

V Nice build fella. has given me some good ideas. I am using the same Spa dash as yourself. Have you tried to set it up yet. Had a small go but without much luck.I think the temp sensor is going to be the problem.

Looking very nice indeed, but I've got to ask, where on earth are you going to fit the speakers??? Maybe some very clever door pods?
