Just a small update.

 

Been a bit busy over the last few months stock piling parts & getting the car into the right state to have some work done

 

Trial fit of new spoiler (this time its staying :innocent:) Although I do have a spare boot lid being delivered so that i can alternate between the 2 options :D

Car was delivered to the new Whifbitz branch today to get these fitted along with a Syvecs :D

 

Once Paul has done the first stage of fitting then the car is going for a colour change :eyebrows: before going back to Whifbitz to get the map sorted :D

Hi Greg

 

Its currently at the body shop, went to check on it this morning & its pretty much ready to start painting it. They reckon end of next week it should be done.

 

Cams, Injectors, Syvecs are all fitted. Should have the car back to Whifbitz to finish up by 5th April at the latest :D

 

Cant wait to get it finished :D

Front bumper had to be removed to get it back on the trailer.

 

All being well should have her back late next week & she will probably be for sale shortly after :innocent:

I like those ali dial surrounds in the first set of pictures, any idea where you can buy those?

 

Or are they the MVP units? i was looking at the HC surround bezels.

 

I believe they are the MVP units :)

 

What have you fitteed in the vent to stop water? I need to do something with mine

 

Nothing yet, still trying to figure out the best way to do it.

Don't have any exact dyno figures after mapping unfortunately, apparently something to do with the way the dyno at Indiblow GT (sorry, meant Indigo GT) works & they can't run any load through it so at 1 bar & 100% wastegate duty it made 330 rwhp so at 1.3 bar which is my max boost setting it should be around 450ish - I'll find out for certain in a few weeks when I take it to a competent dyno operator :)

 

Bit disappointed with the estimated figures but meh, If I decide to keep it I'll just go single next winter :shrug:

Looks good, like the front bumper I always wanted a Ridox, not keen on bonnet or stock wing but each to their own.

 

When I ran it at Dynodaze Ian she was running flawlessly at about 330rwhp if I remember correctly too at 1 bar. I only did a couple of runs to check AFRs after a previous dodgy dyno print. Glad she's still running well.

 

I am still interested in buying her back......

Finally back on the road after 9 months. I can however, feel the love for the car coming back :D

 

I've spent most of today finishing off the few odd jobs that I had left & finishing off the wiring.

 

I still have a few things left to sort out once my bank balance recovers, but they are not urgent :) She also needs a damn good wash :yes:

 

Have a few pics, everyone loves pics :p
