This is starting to take shape now. There was a total jumble of sensor wiring ran behind the downpipe and everyone had melted. I'd imagine 2.4 bar is quite hot lol. I've vertically finished the tuck on the turbo side. It looks pretty bare now. Just waiting to speak to kev about a few things before I crack on again.

I'm also waiting for a shed load of loom tape cos I've ran out.

I'll get some pics up later on.

Boost sensor and fuel pressure gauge wires are ran through the bulkhead to protect them from heat. i did this because every sensor wire was previously ran behind the downpipe and had melted.

And this is how it looks at the minute.

John do you think it's possible to do a wire tuck on a tt?

Just wondered how it would look.

 

Of course it is Tony. As it happens I'm currently doing 1 on Bosscos car. The turbo side is all done, just the intake side to do. I'm just doing it In-between other stuff when I can.
