Have you concidered putting a wheelie bar on it for the 1/4 mile runs ? Might get even more traction from them massive tyres.

[DaveB]

Awesome stuff this nova! specky beater?

What's with the gold nipple fittings in the end of the plenum? Are they feeds for various gauges etc?

[philip2]

im guessing be vacumn pipes, sure it says somewhere he has that many because he hates 't' pieces

Feeds yes.

Specky beater for sure, have to have an aim dont you. Specky and I help each other out given the chance so its friendly fun

[DaveB]

When's your first trip to York then gav?

[jonlem]

Prob end of September now as on holiday soon and waiting on engine loom no rush as the longer its taking the better the specs getting! its getting abit Rick Draper.....just in 4 months not 4 years lmao

[Rick Draper]

its getting abit Rick Draper.....just in 4 months not 4 years lmao

lmaolmao So in that case before you use it you need to change the engine and the whole spec again lmao

[jr@corsasport]

looking good Gav

PMSL at getting a bit rick draper too lmao

[astragsi]

nice update, did you get the samco custom made??

i wanna be at york when this is running

[jonlem]

All the Samco came through Demon Tweeks, everything was off the shelf.

If you are referring to the 90 off the TB then that is a 90 degree hose with a 45 degree hose joined to it, you just cant see the joiner at present as the hose clamps aren't fitted.

The water hoses are Roose hoses although Gav ordered them through ebay iirc

[turbo gav]

lmaolmao So in that case before you use it you need to change the engine and the whole spec again lmao

As long as its faster than yours il leave it alone until winter
