Here s the car the day i got it ![]() It has had a bit of a hit in the front and bent the rail and needs a rad support I quickly set around to stripping the car down and repairing the accident damage pulling it straight ![]() Here you can see where the rail was kinked ![]() Pretty straight now Radiator support panel is off now and the chassis measuring system is under the car ![]() Here is a copy of the data sheet that shows where all the points in the car should be ![]() Test fitting before welding ![]() Welded and fitted, ready for the insides to be painted. ![]() Continued in the next post...

At this point the engine went back in.
![]() I got another bumper and test fitted some bits I was planning to run on the body. ![]() Got myself a new computer. ![]() Did some wiring ![]() Got it to run. (completely untuned) (not sure if youtube works on the BB here) First run and idle - YouTube When I got the car it was running on the factory ecu. It had the OMP removed and a single HT18 turbo. there were alot of loose bolts and dodgy things in the engine bay. I got myself a Nightsports T04b hybrid upgrade for the turbo as i wanted to keep things small and responsive on the road. ![]() So this is the way she was when it went off for the first setup and tune. ![]() |

Locked and loaded for tune
![]() Man, I wish my shed had exhaust pipes!! ![]() Setting up pre dyno ![]() loaded up ![]() ![]() Here is a little video while doing some lower range runs (not very exciting) Sadly the enlarged internal wastegate on the turbo was too small and was giving some boost spikes up to a bar, not ideally where i would like it so we gave up on the tuning for the day and i'll have made a new manifold with a 60mm external wastegate and do it all over again. Not that it matters much but this is the chart. ![]() there is plenty more to be done. |
