Nope - both secondhand
Both powder coated classic subframes
The matt version modded for Twin Scroll.
Fittings on the "Snail" connect to the air valve

Its booked into RCM for mapping in 3 weeks time - just a small amount of wiring left now. Then its ready.
Frayz is right the air [injector] valve is for boost control - but im also using Drive By Wire T/body which is programed to open partially to allow full als.
Ill bring down to the next ESC meet when its ready.

Here's a clue
When the temprature is hot I look at the barometer and it makes me feel like having two dumps but I cant get up the stairs with out a boost of oxygen - answers on a postcard to the Dailty Telegraph please.
