O'yes,meth will be involved 

Thought so
But must check
So will the link run the water meth system ?

O'yes, there's lots of axillary feeds to operate many things.

Launch control being a major factor I guess ?

You can have traction control and anti lag

Read up on the Link. Thats a very smart ECU. Boost by gear too. Could be handy that coupled with launch and antilag.

Race car update, spent the last two days solid on the new manifold assembly's with Steve carrying out amazing work, using his tool making engineering skills to devise and make a complicated, two part secondary injector rail on the shortened lower Cosmo manifold.

Some here know who Steve is but to those that don't he is DS Engineering who is not only a huge reason for the car's success over the years, but you will see below he can make miracles out of a lump of metal. Right enough of that praising stuff or he won't get through the workshop door Monday.

Next up was the upper manifold / You can see how it started, then I ported it out, then used Devcon to get the right shape then Steve milled the face off, also fitting the link temperature sensor ready for the mew ECU.

Next was fitting the adaptor to fit the Hemi throttle body.

Best of all, everything fits inside the engine bay.   

Next week I need to get the rest of the bay finished and have the dump valve boss welded into the pipe the goes from the throttle body to the intercooler, thanks to Steve's help the mods to get more power are really coming along now.

Lisa's just got my Christmas present back from the framers to go in the office, she obviously knows me very well

Good day today/
Picked up the modified pipe to take the HKS blow off valve and the Engine bay is now complete 

Once back from being Mapped the Cosmo plenum will be painted in blue enamel like the lower manifold.
