and that will be it for now... to complete the package

atm is making 210rwkw on 14psi as the 38mm wastegate too small and wont hold much more boost... have made 230rwkw on 17psi before but wastegate couldnt hold it..

and have got trouble with hks ebc atm so when that's worked out will be all good.. but its super responsive atm.. and the power its making is a safe as tune...so plently more left in it..

but atm still bakes 2nd and 3rd so yeh ill get used to it and then turn it up a notch I reckon =D

here is some pics now you've read all the specs =D

enjoy....=D

and now for the best pic of them all hahah =D...me taking the piss out of a serious situation.... =D

Cheers,

Benji

thanks man....much appreciated, and yeh never thought it was going to turn out as well as it has, im effn stoked to say the least!!

have looked over your car quite a few times and love it to bits!!

but there is a reason why I have done that bud, and that's so people appreciate the actual width of the rear fenders, cause with the widebody fuel cap it nearly looks like a std guard to a extent if you get where Im trying to come from..

and hadn't seen many done when I had it painted like that... so when you see the fuel cap sunken in like that you get the idea, then you actually see my sil has massive hips =D!!!!
