Boothy's progress thread

[boothy-]

I've decided to relocate the power steering cooler as im not running ac. Just awaiting some rubber mounts for that

 

[boothy-]

Gearbox all freshened up, Just hope this turns out to be ok as I've not tested it, but feels ok lol

This is my new engine, It is a Evo 8 engine that has done 20k. Got this from Cpp motor developments (Thanks GAz)
I will be running this on a tommi mak turbo GAz gave me some e9 560cc injectors and Ive just purchased a tommi mak ECU mapped to 360bhp (will have this on rollers asap to check fueling etc) and a walbro fuel pump, I have a 3inch straight through exhaust system and im just looking for a descent Exhaust manifold. That will be it for the engine mods till I get bored and want more power lol

I have bought a Mishimoto intercooler, It is big and has taken some fitting to get it where it wasn't touching anything and rubber mounted, But I will have to loose the fog lamps unfortunately so I will have to order so rs blanks.

Also I purchased a full set of evo ix brembo's Many thanks to Capt.Mike for meeting me with them.

Evo 4 vs Ix

I've ordered some braided fuel hose so I can replace these on the pump as they are a little perished
