That car is beautiful mate, its a real killer! That colour is absolutely mint, great combo with the scissor doors too.
Just a question, why did you get an 85 mil throttle body? Wouldn't 65 go down better, or does the extra 2 cylinders warrant the bigger tb?
Good job with the car again.

Thanks mate. The 85mm works better with the manifold I have, but you can go up to 102mm if you wanted. More air = more power.

True, but i suppose if it's high-end torque you want, the requirement for air increases.
An innocent, safe-driving P-plater like me would never want a modification that increases high-end torque...
Just low-end :D.

It works pretty good at the bottom end as well.

Love the colour, not too keen on Lambo doors for anything other than a Lambo but I can certainly see the appeal for those tight car park situations :D
