I have the aquamist already fitted...but I had the wrong size jet and was losing power! So I just received the new jet the other day.. then theres the uprated fuel pump that I need to order.. the list is pretty long.. must be getting shorter by now tho! lol.
Thanks again to the kind replies.. I can post a few pics of the parts I still have that I havent fitted yet.. the chrome and the group n clutch is fitted... the rest is still waiting...
This the the charge cooler.... I am waiting for the next item before I can fit this...
This is...
Cheer pepsi.. after the engine, I'm going to finish the interior.. at the moment there is just a drivers seat! But there still wont be too much going in... how it looks currently..
yes.. here are a few of the outside.. someone else asked I forgot to add some.. soz mate. These were before the new brakes were fitted..
One of front before the new wheels... Click on pics to view full size.. :)
After the new alloys and konis...
Few more bits have been done... and given the carb a good polish-up! Took a few pics thought u might like to see a couple... u'll need to click on the pic to view full size....
and the brakes have now been done.... made a big difference..
few more bits to do... should be...
well... I was gready... and picked out every little mark on the whole car. Mine was £975, but I wanted all the panels put back as new and all chips and scratches repaired. I think u'll find they will do small area's for around £70.. and there will be no sign of any paint repair, when I get small...
You can get these marks fixed professionaly without costing that much..

They fixed 17 years worth of stone chips on my 5gtt... u can see a few pics after they finished. They just localise the area that needs fixing and wont spray the whole...
Hope you can find a solution to your car faults, its a joke you have to now pay someone else more money to fix it!! The independent reports you received from a reputable tuner showed it was purely down to BB's own bad workmanship and should be rectified with an appology from '' The Chief '' (or...
Thanks David.. its something I am deffinitly interested in doing next, it sounds like the kit wasnt put on as easily as it sounded as a d.i.y (bolted on in someones garage for e.g) I wouldnt want to tackle this myself but not experienced enough either, I know my limits and prefer it to be fitted...
you must have good experience with engine building/tuning to do this yourself, how long did it take you to fit the kit and have it all set up and running?
I see you've gone for the FMI rather than the charge cooler would be good to see your reports when you get back on the RR'd or test runs up the quarter.
Thanks for the nice compliments :) Unikarl, here are the ones I used.. P21-S is quality.

My camera refuses to pick up the gold in the metalic and changes all those bits to 'white' mainly on the curvy bits, seems impossible to capure that on my camera. Been trying a few different settings on the camera today, but still no joy with it..but least its looking shiny! :) (its now...
I havent read every page of this thread, but if u'r looking to spend around £15k wouldnt it be less costly to buy a 172 (for around the £6k) then take it to K-Tec for there stage 1 turbo conversion (260BHP £6k) then you would need to upgrade the usual parts to deal with that extra power. But...
I know these arent split wheels, but quite a nice dish.. might look ok on a Black car or silver car.
