The skirts were a pick a part find and where absolutely hammered when i found them. A fair bit of fibre glassing went into them so its not surprising that they needed some more work. Where's your 'TURBO' badge on the front grille?

All the stickers were removed when painted.. I'll haveto get some made up at some stage but at the moment it's more funny with people trying to guess what it is.... few people over here have seen them...normally it's a DOHCa

G'day all,

Took the car back to the dyno today and was crapping myself about over heating. Good news, solid coolant temps and fans controlling it.
So we gave it a nudge this time and all I now need to do is get a cert and wof.

Will post up the dyno graph, however figues are 195 FWKW at 6,200 rpm, Close to 550 NM torque. Did this on 98 pump gas and 20 psi, was still responding well to increases in boost pressure, however decided to be happy with what I had at this stage.

Time to get a WOF and see what it's like on the street.. I'd say interesting would be an appropriate word.

goodluck with the traction! some decent torque to go with the power! did you video the dyno?!?!

I did take a video but only had my digital camera so the quality isn't up there. However, I'll post on my cardomain page and link the video on here.

Yeah, torque steer I see being an issue along with waiting for the power to come on, along with the wheel spin..

That is a very impressive and driveable looking spread.

Hi guys, grabbed some new rims to try and put down the power.
A massive improvement over the stock bickies and looking a bit better too..
Went to powercruise over the weeked and will pop up a quick vid in due course. Cheers, Dan
