Made a throttle cable and bracket, cut the backplate for TBs, where do you get the clips for the filter from?

I think I have a spare set of clips. I'll have a look tomorrow, if so I'll chuck them in the post for you.
Car looks good by the way, got all the right bits on it that's for sure :)
Do i need a vacuum for the fpr?
Thanks very much, if you have them thats be great! :)Quote:

Re this, i was thinking stand the cooler on its end, so it only covering the end cap of the rad...
My cooler was a tad smaller but I used to run it next to the rad like Benn said and never had any probs with oil temps on the let...

It didnt fit Benn would have hung out the grill, dont want that look on this one.
Yeh broke the turbo one up Ste. Was great fun at Oulton I do have to say!
Ah ok, tbh where you have it there will be loads of air getting in, you wont have a prob. My ic covers a big bit of the bottom of the rad and my temps are fine.
looks really tidy
So i had a go at some wiring in the bay, finally bothered to mount the fpr, had a go at the wiring inside too;
Fuel lines all clipped down;

Bay pretty much done, just need to sort something for wiper linkage/motor, and waiting for the engine loom to be returned to me:

Inside wiring is getting there, all taped up in right place, all the stuff im not using has been chopped out:

Next on the agend is getting the oil cooler lines made up, find a few water pipes, wiper linkage, finish flocking the dash, get the engine loom in, kick it in the bollocks, then itll be going down to Glenyboys on thd trailer to be fitted up with doors/wings etc.
Oh and ive got to weld in my lamda boss and put the tailpipe on.
Paul is that FPR an FSE type? as i had one on mine originally and it was too unstable, use to fluctuate/pulse at times meaning fueling was wrong and would make the car run bad, i swapped to the samll SBD type thats none adjustable etc, alls been bang on with that..
Nice update though, glad to see your sorted the seats without killing it! lol
Yeah ive heard that about fse's too, rememeber seeing someones car on the rollers with a pressure gauge jumping all over the place!
Fixed weber/cossie regulator is a good replacement.
Anyway, its looking good man, very good. I want a pass ride!!!!
Every FSE I've used hasn't had a problem. Luckily always had access to arolling road to check AFR and allways been spot on.
I have heard bad things about FSE's, but my turbo engine was on one, as was Craigs (similar spec 330bhp). T&R said fuelling was spot on on them both.
Cheers for comments, no problems Ad, will be booking onto a few days once Ive got Ibiza out the way....
:cool:
Looking good Paul, nearly complete :)
The last of the bits got painted today. Big thanks to Gleny!
FSE's rep comes from them coining in on the chavs with p0wah boost valves yo.
Rest of their kit is the usual expensive and bang on accurate kind of gear from what I've seen.
Love it
Looks awesome Paul!
Dude that look's awesome.
Liking the blue rims.
