If we get some decent weather on the weekend, I intend to take her out to find a nice place to take a few photos. Still, this'll do for now.

Sure. I planned to take interior pics tomorrow so I'll do the engine bay then as well.

Nice colour :cool:

Whats the engine/drivetrain/stat​s?

Why does the outside of your house look like a scale model of Jodrell Bank, by the way?
[that alludes to 'why have you got so many satellite dishes outside there?]

The front wheels putting out 200hp from a 2.0litre turbo? man was not meant to have such power....

IT'S AS IF WE HAVE BECOME GODS :cool:

Be a nice motorway cruiser I reckon.

100bhp/litre from a 2.0litre turbo isnt too hot tho. I know chap with a DC2 Integra pushing out 250brake. From 1.8 litres. Without turbos or superchargers :eek: just stupid lumpy cams and Fireblade throttle bodies/etc.
Near 140bhp/litre :cool:

Like the way your motor looks tho - very smooth and clean.

Work safe :)

No turbocharger, it's got a supercharger. Small difference but a difference indeed. :D

100bhp/litre from a supercharged 2.0l?

MAN WAS NOT MEANT TO HAVE SUCH....oh, sorry, done that one.

My siggestions to you are the following:
Drill the airbox
get a smaller pulley, and a chip.
Remove the sound deadening from under the bonnet.

Enjoy the fact that your car now sounds like a TIE fighter :cool:

Nice stuff, looks like a nice car. They are FWD right? Nice power figures there too.

My mate is running 275hp at the front treads at the moment in his Mazda Astina. Recently ran a 13.0 with a new LSD he put in!

My peice of advice - give her some lowering :D

My piece of advice - trade it in for a Roush Mustang and exit every junction with a half turn of opposite lock and a plume of blue smoke :cool:
