I'll just wait til you're at work and tell your lass you said I could borrow it.

Failing that, my car will easilly catch yours,














If yours is parked up

It's running just short of 500bhp at the moment, but at the begining of next year I will be taking it up to a respectable level of power and sitting it around the 600bhp mark

Nice job Steve, the turbo outlet hose (90 deg) wont help with flow, could you not run it with the intercooler fed the other way to avoid that?

Manifold looks like a Magnus one

i like that steve, the louvres in the wings look good, but im sorry about the sideskirts, dont do the car any justice. i can live with the front spoiler, but just not the skirts.

meh, saying that with 500bhp, your ***** is now 18 inches long and i dare say the car will be a blur - uber fast

any performance figures, surely supercar material with ease?????

You could probably make a few quid Steve at the meet giving passenger rides.

I'll start the queue

Cheers

Love the slats in the wings, assume a bodyshop did them? This was off the road due to fire damage wasn't it?

Unfortunately yes An electrical fault on one of my fans caused most of the engine bay to be trashed by smoke damage. Thats why all my shiney parts are now powder coated and the engine bay is a lovely new shade of white
