car looks mint, congrats

im wondering though, how getting a muffler from the states was cheaper than buying in oz?..... I priced up a Flowmaster muffler from a few different places and they all wanted nearly $100 to ship it here

Twins for the win :mrgreen:

I reckon the new setup looks better, single turbo's are too common lol. I like the look of the new plenum too and the 80mm T/B definitely looks the part.

You're doing an awesome with this car mate. Keep it up :wink:

Great work.
Go for the twin turbos mate, do somthing different, we dont see many twin turbo 4.0L's..
Looks like you've made some sort of deal with Snort, having 2 turbo kits??
do you own both, or is it just a lend to see how it looks?

Your doing very well with your project, keep it up!!

Also were did you get your nice oil filler cap from??

i have had to take the turbos off as i have to get it all running for this weekend for a mates wedding but as soon as thats over it will be back in the shed and get stuck into getting the turbo gear all on.

i have bought a few more things along the way to. got a magnaflow 4" muffler and started making up the 4" exhaust. also got a ems 6860, a little pod for my cosole to house the temp gauge and started on my water lines for the turbos plus mounted my surge tank under the car

well i managed to do something this today, i gave the shed a clean and had a mate pop round so we then stripped the inside of the car out and then put some cable in for the battery relocation.
also got a fully sealed battery box, for the power cable i didn't want to run any in the engine bay so i bought this studs that go through panels which is allot neater... also got some remote battery terminals which look good...
also got some sound deadening rust preventive gear for inside the boot
