    Lot of effort put into it looks nice, can i ask why you chose a Turbo V6 instead of something like an RB engine or Turbo v8?

    Well it started off as a twinturbo v6 and at the time putting a v6 in was easier and cheaper and someone told me I couldn't do it so I did.

    Default GT45 + V6 = Awesome

    Well done.
    I hope that it all goes well with your project and that the GT45 gives you enjoyment aplenty!
