I finally have all my bits to be able to fit my water/meth injection which will allow me to run at roughly 20 psi boost, making this all a rough fit at the moment as I want to enjoy the car this summer and then over the winter a dash re-hash will be on the cards with a new speedo and gauges, got the speedo but awaiting delivery of the gauges


Vmax ....just let me know when you fancy coming up

Just a little tip for anybody who is at the stage of routing pipes/wires down the t/tunnel, it would be a wise decision to add a few extra wires that do nothing but go from end to end of the chassis, I knew I was going to fit water/meth injection at some point but thought it would be an easy retrofit.... WRONG was I If I had put them in when it was easy to do so it would have been a breeze.......SO if you plan to retrofit stuff later on say after IVA don't its a right PITA
