No bling here really... its just there to do the job... I just keep it tidy under there... I've spent enough under the bonnet on the engine let alone paying out for bling...







Keep it suttle... It don't look much but believe me... it moves...

Running a Garrett hybrid off Andy Forrester that bolts up in the standard position... Its moohoosive...!!! Had to get a samco inlet pipe to fit the turbo...
The turbo is good for 500bhp I believe...
My shortblock that I got from Axis... a EJ22t 2.35 is good for 650bhp if I ever wanted to go that far...
I don't really see under the bonnet as bling... everthing that is under there does a job... the fmic pipework come like that... I got a full Hybrid FMIC kit off e-bay for £190 quid...
Hoping after a few changes this weekend should get the car closer to the 500bhp goal...
Full spec can be found in my projects thread...

i havent actually got any under bonnet pics of the scoob. i personally usually use like wd40, especially on the plastics and shiny bits, and buff off. saying that if i put as much detail under the bonnet as i do my drawings, christ id be dead from exhaustion.
