Sweet video Rich, you must be well chuffed. What pressure are you planning on boosting it at ?

It's not a gopro with a sucker mount?

Nah, it's a Contour HD camera with a sucker mount. The mount doesn't reach that far so the only ideal place for it is the window screen.

I'm not sure to be honest mate. What ever makes 450whp I guess. I'd imagine it to be into the 20psi range.
 
just read this through again! Epic work lad plus i love how you have kept the exterior stock!! the way it should be.

Video is ace, compared it to the other vids you sent me of your last set up and its like night and day! go smoke a scooby now! lol
 
Haha, yeah cheers mate. I'll eat one of those pussy cars for breakfast...

I'm booked in for a dyno tune on the 11th February @ Eurospec. Finally..... :)

I was. I've got it running up to 1bar at the moment. The thing is I don't own a dyno and the only way of tuning a car properly is on one. I just want it finished now... it's starting to drag a bit.

Sorry to hear about that mate. I'm sure you'll get it fixed as usual. Just **** when you lkeep having set backs mate. Happens to us all though.
 
You were on the home run aswell :(
But like you said, it's good you spotted it now and not at 9k rpm on the dyno, I hope you get it all sorted.
 
What a pain. Better that you caught it now though before any major damage occured!
 
So what do you think caused this? Excess instant gasket from the sump?
