Finally fully rebuilt and back on the road. Who says you can't rebuild VVTI =P

My undertray got totally mashed up when I crashed so I finally got to making a temporary ali one until I get a new bumper and will make a nicer one which fits better.

Glad it's back on the road mate Smile

Undertray lasted a whole 30 miles, awesome.

Car is back in it's usual resting point waiting for bits and my friend brought his riley in. Looks amazing!

Got some injectors from Nick, he found me some second hand and sent them over. Very helpful guy, excellent for any parts!

Looked into getting an exhaust flange water cut but it was quite difficult to measure the gasket and a bit tricky to draw up so I made it by hand instead. Manually rough machined the ports and finished with a grinder. Outside shape still needs grinding but wanted a test fit first

Came out surprisingly well actually. Been a lot of debate as to where I will put my turbo, would like to have it down low so I can cool it easier and have a short pipe for the intake with a trumpet in the bumper maybe but then the manifold will have to corckscrew around itself which will be a pain to make but look amazing. Also thinking about a side exit exhaust through the passenger wing but not sure yet.

Also got some ITB's! They will be getting put on with a nice ali plenum

Very nice! Love the side exit idea. I've wanted one for ages but never done it.

Move wideband up the down pipe. Back box as part of down pipe and out, job done. Mmm

Ha ha ha ha youve got him thinking there .
Its lookin good mate not long till all finished


Altezza Build! - Tosh21 - 11-07-2022

Yea it would b cool but I don't think it will work. No space for a silencer so it will b extremely loud and that's just annoying

Finished the fist bit of the manifold and welded the stubs on.
