Exhausts extended.

 

[andybond]

Still split exhaust @Clarkey ? Just extended out a bit ?

 

[Clarkey]

Yes mate. As we run a swirl pot now under the car, didn't want any flames under there !!

Some impressive work going on in here, some of the parts look like they should be on a spaceship or something :i-m_so_happy.gif:

 

[Clarkey]

Thanks guys.
Bits to do this week :
Finish off wiring to steering wheel for launch control and wiper switches.
Refit all boost hoses with air and boost sensors.
Fit catch tank, had to chop some off the bottom to make fit
Put petrol in and set FPR to 3 bar.
Charge battery.
Then the big moment....................probably Saturday.

 

[Woznaldo]

I'm getting excited for you!

 

[Clarkey]

Had a little play today....
Petrol in and FPR set to 3 bar.
Couple tiny leaks, one of the banjos on the inlet tricky to seal but got there in the end, other under the car. All the braided hose joins good....
Primed her up and couldn't get oil pressure up, so off with the dizzy drive to make sure it was seated to oil pump, refitted and hey presto. Oil pressure light went straight out.

Started to turn her over and..........flat battery

Is that dropping a cylinder? On mobile so sound not great but when you rev it it sounds like it's missing one.

Just what I thought I heard yesterday, asked the question and it's nowhere to be seen.
