[Renault_Boy01]

[Fletcher]

The blue induction hose clashes.

 

[ollie_kerslake]

yeah the hose isnt perminant, just didnt wanna fork out £50 for a samco yellow.

 

[B5 BDJ]

+1

 

[fatboyslim]

Not for me to be honest, but fair play for the diy!

 

[cat171]

I'm not overly keen on the yellow.

 

[MT AUDIO]

how you do the strut top mounts?
you want a samco particularly?sure venairsport or viper performance do one cheaper

 

[caeteez]

Looks great.

Not really bothered about samco, to expensive. I asked venair and they didnt have any yellow at the time.

All i did for the strut tops was mask of and paint, nice and easy and they look alot better.

Not my bag of babies, each to their own tho..

 

[Russ.]

what paint did you use mate? i like it

 

[R1XPH]

Looks the muts mate!

What power you getting out of it?

 

[HartZ]

Looking good buddy! What paint and method did you use?

 

[Christopher]

erm, a little bright

tidy though

 

[ollie_kerslake]

I used bog standard engine paint from flebay, you can get it from halfords as well, i just gave it a dam good clean with some degreaser and soupy water, gave it three coats of yellow and then for the black just used a steady hand and small brush.

Im getting about 187bhp out the bad boy.

cheers for all the good comments guys and girls

 

[Tay]

Nice work Ollie I like it, just need a change on the 90 degree pipe mate.

Did you paint directly on to the cast inlet manifold after degrease or sand it down etc first ?

 

[ollie_kerslake]

Cheers Tay, I just cleaned it up, didnt bother sanding, I did that a month or so ago and its fine lookings like the day I did it, good paint though i suppose. I know i cant remember what size the 90 degree bend is, i dont wanna go outside and measure it though, looking around for the right size

[Riad]

[madhops87]

Smart. Going to do mine soon, lots easier than polishing!

 

[ollie_kerslake]

[Djw John]

Think it will look better with a black engine cover

 

[Russ.]

i am loving the painted plenum though, might paint mine instead of polish it
