Are you worried about boost leaking from that wastegate?
Didnt have time to finish waste gate plumbing before going to exhaust. needed it tacked on so dump pipe could be made around it. Will finish off welding before taken to ceramic coat :thumbsup:

Who's going to tune it and are you going to use e85?

Unigroup will tune and engineer at same time. Yeah going to use E85. It's a high maintenance fuel, but fully worth the extra power imo.

trim colour looks great against your paintwork. Did you have to go for a full custom carpet job because of the mods to your floor?

really wanted to do something with roll cage, aside from black. but fingers crossed it will work well with black harnesses, black harness slots in the front seats, black carpet and black dash.

the fluorescent lights never do this paint justice. cant wait to see it in the sun with trim done.

Couldn't use a pre moulded carpet from Knox Auto carpets etc, because of bigger sheet metal tunnel, box tube seat mounts & bracing along sills. The carpet had to be done in three sections - one piece over tunnel, then a piece either side. glad i wasnt doing it :D

finished spraying the dash fascia, centre console, lower parcel shelf and glove box. Even though it was a black Upol texture coat can, it came out a matt, almost grey, colour. completely different colour than what i wanted but oh well. i've noticed a lot of 1600's over the years seem to have a slightly different dash colour. Pioneer head unit looks great, that gauge pod/head unit centre console design was a great buy.

Had a small ally plate welded underside of plenum for all ports. looks much neater than ports sticking out all over the place, as originally made.

Your 1600 is turning out crazy. Who did your carpet install ? Looks really good.
