Well there it is.. fully painted.. uploaded pictures on my profile gallery.. including dash, clock and aircon control bulb mods.. on the supercharger, ..well theres progress on the airbox,... one found, but waiting o see how much noise it will reduce it by.... am hoping to do the engine internals at the same time when the noise solution is found, then mapping, and then an even bigger smile on my face.. :winky: On the noise Tom, Steve was saying 70% Car looking very nice mate :winky: will have to keep you posted on LOC, As ive been banned from prolex forums now :o Cheers Gord... 70% seems pretty good... (i think)... :winky: Still enjoying the TTE kit... as you'd expect.. Well it is very loud as you know, so i would still expect it to be more than the TTE set-up mate :o if you go on you tube, you can see/here some running. Yeah gord I have done this.. but not searched them with the specific airbox steve found.. wasnt sure how to gauge the noise produced from the s/c with the speaks from the laptop and youtube... but sure its a step in the right direction! -

Thanks alot aztec... It was the stone chipping that convinced me.. looked terrible.. Def a great idea if you plan on holding on to it.. the difference (for me) is outstanding.. and of course now im proud when people are looking round it.. (not a common car in France, almost inpossible to find) :) -

well not totally relative but just an`update on my car... Its gone to paint... A mate of mine who works for a famous paint company (they do luxury and sport cars) here in France.. Jerome Azema is doing it for an amazing price... He´s painting it tonight.. also a picture of my dash with white leds... -
Never said it was, but it produces the power he wants for prob half the price. That is assuming he can get a second hand charger setup. I know of a sencond hand one (tte) that will be for sale, when Steve sorts Tom's out :D

As brice1ie said his problem was only the loud sound it made, which some people may infact enjoy :) I'm just not aware they fitted any others yet, which I'm sure Dave will tell me. Well if you like the noise of a jet engine at idle... then you´d love the noise that my car was making.. especially when your driving at 30mph... but for me... well i prefer if heads turned because my car was wizzing passed rather than them turning because they thought an commerial jet was landing on the road behind them! :winky: But with Steve from Charlesworth on the case.. well sure it´ll be purring again... be it more like a lion than a kitten!
