Jason,

I found Grahams car on a forum I flick through now and again and it's also on this months PPC.

Email add would be great, adding more F/I to the zone is always a good thing!

Thanks, Mark.

I bet he has some under bonnet temp issues with that exhaust routing 8O

Look how close his HT leads sit to it. They will be buggered shortly.

I know why he has done it. On martins M3 the steering coloum was on the other side and out of the way, but on his right hooker it will be exactly where the down pipe needs to be :(

Looks like such a small turbo for 450bhp!

Fair play though, read about it in Walkers World (or whatever it's called) in PPC last month too :)

It's similar to Martins T3/T4 hybrid in size, I thnk I read it was a T38 somewhere.......
Something else I found in PBMW was that the 1100hp e36 m3 is using a 72.7 mm compressor :eek: mines 82mm! LOL! :cool:
