[DRAGON]

Just finished thissingle turbo conversion and engine rebuild (big big street port:), put it in the car yesterday. Setting up custom ignition system at the moment, and some more work on the fuel sytem after that. Just thought i\'d post some pics. More to follow when all work is completed.

Looks really cool, Are you suffering the same mid life as me, all that bling.

Is this gona be your own car or a customers.

All you modders out there, this is what an engine and car should bling like, not my bag of old sh*ite thats cost a fortune.

Well done

Daft question, but why spend all that money on a huge turbo and then force it to injest hot air straight off the radiator, rather than giving it nice cool external air to breathe.

Seems a bit like drinking your own urine

You havent seen the engine in the bay Bill, it will not ne exposed to radiator heat, dont worry.
Good point though, I am quite aware of your point, you can see that from this photo of my old engine bay.

Thanks g11ary, this is a customers car.

Thanks for the pic jaydee

Hey Bill, I cut a frikken hole in bonnet how much colder air do you want!!!! Look at 99% of heavily modded japo cars they hardly even address this issue, so I think I\'m doing quite well.

\'All you modders out there, this is what an engine and car should bling like, not my bag of old sh*ite thats cost a fortune.[/B]

g11ary you\'ll be surprised at how little this all cost compared to what you have spent on your ecu alone! That includes full rebuild, big street port and loads of other mods to engine, T66 turbo, wrapped manifold, wastegate, big power custom ignition system, big power fuel system, loads of little secret bits and welding etc. Power FC ECU, painting engine bay, extra injectots, remove ABS, instal line lock, install Wilwood brake bias adjuster etc, etc.

Looks very nice mate, how much would all that cost then? a pretty penny I would guess!
