Looks Spot on to me, That a Kill switch under the seat??

 

[avstar1]

Thanx, Fia cut off switch to isolate the battery!

 

[B16DOE]

spot on mate . might be a silly question to some but what is that under the seat

 

[avstar1]

Sorry I should have explained... Its a race battery which can be layed flat on its side cos it's a solid state battery. It's in a carbon look battery box with a cut off switch.

Did you get the TB from Ebay? Noticed any difference? Could be hard to tell as you've moved the battery aswell......

Looks awesome lad!

 

[avstar1]

Cheerz

Yup ebay one, had the tb done before the battery move and thought there was a slight difference but could have just been in my head. was only 56quid and exchange of tb, so worth a shot. The inside was smoother but the blade is still the same size

Yeah, I was pretty sceptical about them aswell TBH! Battery re-locatin is tidy as though fella....

Same! making something shiny = performance? Would be interesting to see a before/after RR but abit OTT for such a small change.

Anyway, car looks great and I love that battery!

If the inlet tract was more linear and you knew it had good flow properties etc then it might make a difference but IMO it wont do s**t!


£56 was worth a punt though I guess!

 

[Reyes]

[cal46]

[Jay Payne]

Im doing something similar (relocating battery for induction) Are u venting the oil breather to atmosphere?

Ended up selling the brakes but I might be back in the fold again with Ben_p's group buy

Yeah not connected to the induction anymore... I have an itg vent filter

sweet , i see you've changed the ik angles again

Yup, this is my winter setup because I dont want to get any water on the ecu as it was placed before. but soon as it gets warmer and drier I have the other setup you have seen

Cool mods. What's going on with the headunit though?

Was intending to get an alpine but havent got around to it... the noise when I floor it is ammusing enough.

Thanx for all the comments... But to be honest if I was doing it again I wouldn't bother. On a good note torque is now 170ftlb and 188bhp on a dyno dynamics rolling road!

Just needs engine cover & HU to top it off

Whats been done to the throttle body?
