Mission accomplished!

Pushing on over Christmas. Looking to get the engine and box in, brakes bled, then make a start on the only two things left to engineer, the wiring loom and the intercooler pipes.

Great to see it rolling
I have weighed it with nearly everything on, and it was 760kg. I am expecting the all up weight to be around 800kg.

May even be werrington
Allegedly!
Looking at travelling a little further afield in 2014, hoping to get to Shelsley Walsh, Prescott and Loton Park at least once, also Epynt Hillclimb, Gurston Down, Wiscombe, possibly an excursion to France for St. Goueno, so a packed programme till we run out of funds!

This is Chi we're talking about. He has an infinite pool of money.
This is why I try and buy cars already built.. Im sure if id done my turbo from scratch id of had no change from 10k
Pool has run dry mate :,(
320-340bhp, 800kg and 4 wheel drive... Insane!!!
So to put this in perspective, an evo 8 fq340 weighs around 1400kg and is what most would agree, a very quick car. This car should be able to put the power down just as good and weighs 600kg less! Should get you up those hills mate haha!!!

Running approx 280BHP to start with , so thats 350BHP/Tonne.
If all goes well will build a 2.1 litre stroker for 2015, should get 500BHP from that one, so thats 625BHP/Tonne. If I can handle it!
