Is now having a link v5 and dynotuned to 15psi over the next couple of weeks. Had it on the wideband yesterday to find it was running dangerously lean :S Not sure if the FPR has something to do with it or what but I'm sure will find out soon enough, just lucky it didnt go bang, im not ready to build a forged 4efte.....just yet
So, watch this space for new power figures! Will definately get down to meremere after its all tuned up and see how the little red beast goes

Boost gauge is out slightly, so it was only running 13psi, made 126kw atw on 13psi with stock injectors around 80% duty.
Not as much as I'd thought but still damn good power for daily 700ish kg!
Will try and track down some 7mgte injectors and go back to dyno in a few months for 15-17psi to run for trackdays/drags/lols.
Cant wait to get back to fangin it again!

Not subtle
MUCH more subtle!
Is actually louder cause its just straight pipe, but looks a lot better, needs to rust more/paint it black.
Little step closer to stock looking

Forgot to post my new steels
Hubcaps are too new looking so will most likely just roll with the steels by themselves.

Some new pictures mainly because I took spare wheel + shit out of the boot, cleaned it up and cut the extra carpet off. No more spare wheel and false floor bangin about when I go over bumps!
Clean door jambs!
Somewhat tidy interior.
Clean outside too!
Had to add this, shiny boot inside!
And my 144kw dyno run.
