it a shame about the paint, especially when it spent soo long in the bodyshop. i know the feeling of cleaning your own car and finding flaws in the bodywork. i must have quite a few on mine!

not this year maybe next only want to put it up when its all finished and people have had the chance to see it in the flesh lol. am picking the supercharger up tomorow and will be altering it from the old dynamo to a alternator on sunday. this requires remouval of the old regulating box and bit or wiring alterations and fittment of a fuse box. Cheap modification really as my supercharger kit is coming with the alternator and brackets etc.

well picked up the kit yesterday. I know I need a complete new engine before running it but I have decided to trial fit everything to my current engine. Well in order to fit the mounting bracket I had to remove the distriubutor, mechanical fuel pump, mechanical water pump. These are things I need to buy:
1. Peugeot 2.5 gti radator, fan and electric water pump.
2. facet 20psi fuel pump
3. charger cooler ( am currently watching one on ebay of a focus)
4. Megajolt 3d programable ignition using ford edis system
5. inlet manifolds
6. delorto twin 45's dhla turbo spec carbs of esprite turbo.
7. fully rebuilt 1300 engine.
Heres some pics of the charger mounted to the current engine
