1320 MINI "Old Red" goes turbo

[Paul@1320]

Suddenly this project has become urgent as there is only 107 days to the first round of the UK FWD Series at Santpod on March 17th :thumbup1:

To start the day Scott started placeing some pipes



Smiler was laughing at Scott swearing for most of the day



and eventually Scott got to this stage in between jobs



then the night shift came in Santa Pod tech crew Mark Norton re-certified the chassis for another 3 years



So we can't go any faster than 8.50 sec for another 3 years ::

Cheers mate,

Looks like you & the boys will be busy up there next year

[Paul@1320]

Its going to be so nice to see Thomas under pressure in the driving seat

[Hartge220]

You not driving then??

Looking forward to some more Pro Mod style burn outs, I'll remeber to bring my carmera this time

[Paul@1320]

Still needs the wastegate fitting and fully welding but its getting there

More pics





Scotty got some of the UpDownpipe done on Friday

[Paul@1320]

Looks like the MINI ONE bonnet fits nicely again

[Paul@1320]

Wastegate mounted and the wastegate exhaust is half completed

[Paul@1320]

Not much of an update apart from Thomas decided to cut the plenum in half and order some billet trumpets......to say they look like they were made for it is an understatement.

[Paul@1320]

So we picked up the WTA Intercooler core today..........so the air will flow through here;




And the water will flow through here;
