DBA, discs i got from Ellz, i repainted them GOLD as they are the DBA golds come up very nice.
still waiting for the pipe to come so i can connect the Exhaust up to the down pipe on turbo. Intercooler pipe work is of to the welders over the weekend.

not the best for 1/4 miles due to the gearing
i would guess 17's
You guessing 17's with or without charger ?
with or with out its still not good, thats why there are alot of guys doing engine swaps, me being one of them

UPDATE!!!
Hi guys,
I got some more done on the car, last week i took my turbo Houseing to a Hotrod place i know, took it there as i have seen there work and its very good, i needed a pipe welded to the outlet so when i come to connect the hose to the it it will not hit the manifold, well i went and pick that up to day, and very nice job the guy did, I also got the pipe work for the rad done and thay are all connected up now, took the down/pipe of so i could weld 2 O2 sensor Nuts on it, thats all done and put back on the car, now i have the intercooler pipe work to line up and mark, then i can take it of to get welded.....

Hi guys well heres the video, just to let you know theres is no turbo on the car right now as i took it of as i still have the oil line to be fitted so to save the turbo i took it off, this vid is just of the engine running as i removed alot of bits like the RAD, turbo and some more bit to make it easy for me to work on the car when i was wireing it, still alot of work to get it all put back on and looking the way it should look, sorry but i could not open it up and or it would have got to hot and thats the last thing i wantted.
any way here you go
