Wow just catching up on this thread that is some power your getting now from that tiny engine.
Picked up the Nova yesterday from BTEC Racing, so the hard work for me begins now to get it ready for testing, and then the first race weekend 16/17th April.
There's an awful lot of stuff to do, so panic time.
what no pics :(
Sorry, here you go, not much to see though really, as there's lots of re-fitting and things to be done;Quote:

Also got myself a rather flash Dymo label printer, which will allow me to do some fancy labelling for switches, fuses etc.;

The new exhaust system now exits on the passenger side;

It's currently unsilenced, and may well be too loud to get away with at race meetings. The old exhaust system has been modified so it can be re-fitted in case of emergencies........
The new STACK dash is lovely, but the boost pressure sensor that came with it seems to be faulty, and at £250 +VAT for a new one, I'll make do with a temporarily rigged up separate boost gauge for the moment;

The boot floor will be covered with carbon fibre, I will make up a cardboard template first, based on the Vauxhall-supplied carpet template;

Ian Bennett has kindly made me up some rear light stickers to go along with the headlamp stickers he did for me earlier;
