its a custom made 3 inch job of the tubby with 3 large boxs.

Shit the bed! How clean is that under there!

I wish I had the patience and want to do something like that with mine!

Nice spec there James, is your 2871 with the 0.64 housing? Like the seats  
What sort of power is it running?

Hi pete. Yep running the 0.64 housing. 3 inch inlet. It's the lowest lag 2871. Car made 355bhp & similar Tourque at only 1.4 bar. Edd at fusion said with a stronger wastgate actuator it will make 400plus.
That can wait till next year tho
