Lm-1 wide band.
Manual boost controller to go to 10psi.

Sorting out who to go through to get the kit, should be running and good by February.

Yeh that's good, keep it simple I say cause you can always upgrade things. This way your more likely to get it up an running then dreaming about it !
From what I've seen, I think you'd be better off with somethink between .74-.78ar, you'll probably get a much better spool from that on a simple setup.

Car looks damn fine too

Been talking to a few people here and in the UK, and with the setup I posted they start spooling at 2500-2700rpm and on full boost by 3300rpm. Which are boost characteristics I desire for fwd and p plates.

Thanks mate.

So little update of sorts, car had its first workout.

Full car 5 cases of beer and a few skateboards, just about zero scrubbing. So one could imagine with rolled fenders and 10mm wider adapter I should be sweet.

Fixed my lip as ki11z? Sorry, recommended came up a treat, then I smashed into a maccas cup full of ice, bent it all up so fixed that this morning too.

Rego is paid off so next is turbo time.

If something major happens and it is no longer drive able or registrable. You've got a deal!

Decided not going to uni for two weeks should stop today. Will chuck some photos up tomorrow of the wheels.

No deal...

I've got a coolant leak! Hoping ishose related and not to do with the thermostat.

**HaydEn** · 17-08-2012, 08:07 AM

With a quick look before work.

It's worse then expected. The leak is coming from behind the accessory belt on the drivers side. From what I can see there is no coolant lines here? Or Is there?
