Couple of updated pics of my engine bay after a bit of a clean, new airbox and some new soundproofing on the bulkhead (what a pain in the backside it was to fit too!) A new rocker cover is on order too.



does the soundproofing make and difference? thinking about getting some

Nick, i've only drove a short distance with it on, it's hard to tell as the new airbox has that snorkel thing on it which makes a bit more induction noise up to about 2500 rpm then after that, it seems alot quieter than it was, who knows, might just be placebo though?

I'm gonna add some to the interior side to the bulkhead and give it a whirland report back.

He was messing about, while still appreciating the hard work that has been put into it. *Yawn* TMF is so uptight!!


Your car looks mint mate. was just a passing comment, i dont think ive seen any mini where the wipers line up properly, no matter how nice the rest of the car is. Wouldnt be a mini if they did line up :thumbsup:
