    should be a weapon with the charger on it...i was thinkin about buyin that charger, but didnt have the money to back up my decision lol....

    need to massivly clean the engine bay, a few cans of degreaser will do the pretty good... also why did u choose to go red engine covers? y not body colour? just curious..

    also imo it would look pretty good if the artistic panels sticker was removed, have u thought about that? but car looks pretty sick with the paint, well done...

    For the oil feed i ran a T piece off the oil pressure switch, for the oil drain ive got the modified dipstick with like a Y bit on it to drain through there. No intercooler at the moment, but i wanna fit one soon, fitting charger was no worries.
    What size injectors have you got, and what fuel pump?

    cheers troy,sprayed em that colour before the car got sprayed,would like em sprayed the same as the top colour tho.thought bout the stickers but it would look to plain without them.wagon_wheel no fuel pump atm but got offered a bosch 044 external with speedflow fittings before for $160 off some bloke and the charger kit came with 2 v6 supercharged injectors so hope they will be ok.

    How are you going to run the 044 though, you gonna run a surge tank?
    And did you say you only have 2 injectors?? Thats not gonna get you very far lol

    either that or a dodgy way of not upgrading to bigger injectors
