looking good mate :) getting there! how much bhp you hoping to be pushing out?

[danbmini]

Not entirely sure, i will find out when it's put on the rr. A few lads on the TurboMinis forum with similar specs are pushing somewhere around 170bhp.....I will be happy with that!

So things are slowing down. Lots of little jobs that seem to take an absolute age! So i'm not going to rush it to finish it this year as the bad weather is already here.

I have been making a few brackets from sheet ally too. And got a ND alternator from matty (TurboMinis) which will help with space hopefully!
