All i can say is wow! That manifold is ultra porn! Will it really be finished out the bonnet? Or is that like a screamer pipe?
Is the new turbo gonna give much bigger bhp?

The pipe through the bonnet is the exhaust, there is another downpipe which allows a normal(ish) exhaust system to be fitted for road use and mapping. The 2 wastegates need screamer pipes installing yet.

That turbo has made 750hp on a Yb Cosworth engine, I don't know how hard Gav plans to run it though for potential reliability issues, obviously if things don't break then the power simply gets increased, if it never breaks then god help us all but were not that naive to believe atleast 1 item won't fail, the last turbo was good for 450hp, oh and there is the potential for loads of gas on top of that.

Traction bars are simply in Gavs case something to stop any unwanted movement in the wheels and shell, there not off the shelf so need to be made, its the last thing on the list though as you would have to work around everything.

We've been busy finishing off the Tigra which makes it debut on sunday, after that we can get back on with the nova
