Intercooler looks fine. Is the plate recess 'open'? I assume you will fill it?

what do u mean by plate recess mate?
where the number plate goes on the bumper?
yes. he means have you cut the numberplate recess out for better cooling
Loving this nova man!!
no the numberplate recess is still there and plate will be going on as normal
sorry will get clearer pics :)
would be pointless as the intercooler will get plenty of air from the bumper cutout :)
still doing this mate ?? any updates?
Tryed getting hold of you but im guessing you've got a new number
back! Yeh still doing this!
mate is selling his project that your gte came out of tho, in favour of a gti6
:(
As per the pm jimbo, not seen nova in about 3 months till last night. Work will be commencing again now, as had lots go on with the business and house move.

looking good mate. Cant wait to see it on the road :)
i will ask my mate whos looking for a nova if he wants it.
love this mate! But i dont know why any one would sell a gte for a gti6 even though they are ok id supose!
Glad you stuck with it Shaun and good to see it's on the road again :thumb:
that looks really cool.
looks great :)
Cheers guys, Car was collected last night by a mate to get the exhaust fitted!
Hopefully get car back tonight, connect starter and battery up then good to go!
popped to my mates garage to see how he had got on with it today,
has got it sitting right up into the tunnel which is good stuff!
do they normally sit quite low on the rear though?
loads clearance from beam etc so no worries there :)

What size system is that Shaun? Nice, but side exit looks better imo..
it does but this was a cheaper option to get it running. is 2.5 inch
want to get a custom side exit within next month or so. but this exhaust came up mega cheap lol

Ok Joe nice one!
Might just wait to get big block ones, inlet will be here saturday and im off to bournemouth on sunday to meet novarally and pick up a complete c20xe package
whats the c20xe package for? Anything exciting?
remember that white nova lee had?
another mate has bought that off him, so will be going in there. he couldnt afford turbo so wanted redtop instead.

They just screwed to the bonnet? And yea its going on the green one. May use standard catch and get some catches just to fill the holes lol
lol
depends whether i go for fibreglass or a normal bonnet really. if i go fibreglass( I think i will) then i will need the catches :D
will take it off the car tomorow for you, when will you want it?
