most work done by me and my mates.
During the six years i owned it it won 9 trophies in car shows.Including to best car in show awards.
it was also a every day drive car and did a 11.5 sec 1/4 with stuffed auto.
Bloody hell, you did a lot of work! That OTR intake is quiet a good idea, haven't ever seen one done for a turbo like that before. Did the paint hang on to the compressor housing OK with the heat?
painted the motor aswell all stayed in placed used two pack same as the car.
A mate and i did the painting and as he was a welder we made the intake aswell.
Sorry mate I meant like a lighter gauge or thinner material I don't know my sheet metal terms lol! You see these OTR's working really well in Commodores for the LS series motors, yours is a cracker.
