Big Thanks to Enginetuner
Just a big thanks to everyone at Enginetuner for my forged 2.5 build on my GB270 wagon. Looks great and just needs running in now.
Service has been great overall - easy to contact - helpful and informative without being over the top - confident and confidence inspiring which is very reassuring when doing something fairly major.
And thanks to Linda for my constant phone calls!

That looks seriously good. The black powder coating goes with the paint.
Must ask, what does wrapping the exhaust do? Apart from do away with heat shields?
Is there any sort of gain from it?
Man that looks the nuts!

Firstly I have many more photo's but they give the idea and they do not do the build justice - as Alan said and I agreed with it almost seems a shame to 'Hide' it in the car.
It's a coated SC46 - had an SC42 previously on there which I was going to stick with but decided whilst engine out and being built to go for the SC46 - for a road going 2.5 seems to be a great choice.
Wrapping headers/up-pipe I think helps improve spool - keeping heat in the headers helps to keep exhaust speed high (but could be completely wrong and typing crap) - truth is Alan/Martyn recommended - simples.
I love the slightly understated/reserved look personally - although again it looks better in the flesh.
It's like I'm 8 again and it's Christmas Eve and I know I've got a BMX for Christmas. 913 miles and counting.
