hodge Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 Exhaust was welded a treat last night so got it all bolted back together with the monster v-band clamps today. This should put pay to my blowing exhaust for sure. I've also heat wrapped my wastegate lines, Fitted a new 200 amp alternator. I'm a little disappointed though as could I hell get the pulley off. When I did Johnnys it cracked straight off but not this 1. It's just starting to young the centre nut off so thought I best leave it on. Big gutted seems I've got sone blue greddy pulleys on the way. I've also had the front bumper off and cleaned the 5 gallon of PAS fluid out the bottom. Oil filter and sanwich plates straight to block. V-bands And a quickie of the Aerocatches fitted.

hodge Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 Still waiting for my grassy pulleys so I have to put a set of stock ones on the car so I could get it running and check out the exhaust and see if the joints are leaking. IT SOUNDS AWESOME. I'm made a few small tweaks with the setup and it's running a world better now. It's still running very rich but I'm sure Ryan will nail that come the 26th. I've done 4 vids and p.med them to Johnny. He's going to host them on YouTube for me and post them up. I've totally got the love now. Just can't wait til it's all painted.
