Bit more progress over the last two weeks or so firstly i finished off making the tesioner, ive used an E36 m43 idler pully which also donated its crank pully to make the charger pully so its should be rated at the same sort of rpm/power.
Trail fitted the inlet manifold today and worked out were the FPR will fit, fingers crossed it wont be need after its mapped and it will run fine on the 3bar reg but it gives me the option to play about if needed.
Made this plate to bolt up to old air box mounts so that i can mount the supercharger oil resivour of it, it right next to the charger so the pipe length to the supercharger oil pump is kept to a minimum which is good.
Made a plate to mount on the old throttle pot bolt holes with the large plug and now fitted the newer smaller throttle pot with the now normal plug on it.
Nothing realy major but i decided to paint the charger bracket silver just to stop it going rusty and looking crap. need to sort out the wiring for the oil temp and pressure sensors to now i can get there.
Somthing that i was never realy happy was the old oil resivour i fitted from the suzuki swift, it did a job but mountd off the strut brace it looked naff and the pipes were in the way.
Found my old origonal one cleaned it and refitted it and replaced the low fluid level switch, always nice to know youve got brakes
Mark, that inlet looks great in the other pics you sent, keep emailing you back but 3 days later i get a Email not sent warning! god knows why. Any more news on it by the way?
Would a 540 throttle be any good to you? its around 82mm, fits over a 3" pipe anyway with alittle to spare.

I only wish I had your fabrication skills, this will be one hell of a car when it's done! My hat is well and truely off to you sir!
