stichy Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 what wrong with the carbon? it looks like proper carbon,and not just the perfect weave show carbon. if you look at carbon used on f1 cars, it nothink like the carbon bonnets you get. build looks top job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT4 Zed Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Comming along nicely Ian So from what i gather you will be fitting everything apart from the injectors and stage 0 kit Why so?

Ian Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 ***PORN ALERT*** Started this morning by fitting my Cosworth plenum Old Plenum off For some reason I missed the photo of the lower plenum off Cosworth on Its a work of art, I'm tempted to take it off and just hang it on the wall Cosworth instructions suck though, gets even more confusing when they mix up theyre lefts and rights Then I got the radiator back in properly & fitted the fans Its a bit tight though I think I may have to hack away part of the fan surrounds for everything to fit properly Then we got the supercharger bracket, blower & intake pipe fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 That Cosworth SSV is NSFW!! Wait untill you see it in the flesh Very much liking the HKS bracket. Looks considerably more oem than the Vortech I reckon.

Ian Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 just notcied how small the hks supercharger really is ! hard ot belive such a small blower can boost a big engine like the vq to such power! Its not going to be anywhere near nurrishes figures, I won't break the 400whp barrier with this kit. I am hoping to get about 370/370 with it though, ive got a smaller pulley that needs to go on aswell Later this year or early next year I will start investigating into the bigger S/C unit & a bigger front mount & up the power a bit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
