Looks disgusting Chris, how do you live with yourself?

If you wanna add even more pics then i wont mind. Mine will be a similar spec but with a 2.5ltr motor. So cant wait to see how yours goes once mapped.

Absolutely adore your car and always love to see work by Matt and Olly.

Hi Frayz,looking for 500-530 bhp or thereabouts,as usual Matts work is great,some of the Gobstopper has found its way onto the car,but they both think its their car anyway so I just let them do their thing,but joking aside I'm well chuffed,just got a Bosch motorsport fuel pump with anti-surge tank to go on then Dave Rowe can do his thing,but theres no rush at this time so the car is under a dust sheet all nicely polished parked next to the Gobstopper in the workshop.

Just a few pics after a weekend of cleaning at RCM, this is how the Gobstopper stays so clean.

Stunning. The quality of the work/parts look simply awesome.

To get a pic of your car with the Gobstopper is worth the 5 figure bill alone lol

Thanks for the nice comments guys,I must say living near to RCM is very handy and saturday afternoons are often spent up there cleaning and polishing, the welcome mat is always out and you will not find two nicer guys than Olly and Matt Clark,and being able to mess around the Gobstopper is pretty cool aswell.

Matt had these hoses custom made to fit around the wheel arch and the hose from the header tank to the turbo runs nicely in line with the fuel rails.

The hose from the turbo to the intercooler is 5 ply for extra strengh.
