A few of you may know I've been building an engine to drop in my red car.

 

Well, after a lot of hard work and long hours, it's finally done.

 

Before: Manky engine bay and stock engine.

 

 

Better view of manky engine bay :whistling:

 

 

Engine built and ready to fit:

 

 

New engine fitted and engine bay cleaned up.

 

 

 

Thank god it's in! Now to run it in and have some fun :D

 

WOW :eek: :eek: Superb work!!! Wish i could do summit like that! :bow:

Unusual colour choice, but very nice.

 

Any reason for no Throttle body or 'Twin Turbo' Logo?

Great work buddy :D Looks much much better!

Very nice mate! You will have to bring that beast to a few meets :D

Nice work. I'd love to do that to mine, but I know I'll never get the time!

Looking good Rob, you'll have to give me a spin in it next time we meet.

Very well done rob, You must be please :D

Liking the Black plenum! Getting some black calipar paint to paint some of my smaller Engine bay bits! What kind of paint did you use on the plenum??

well done matey, you will have to bring it round. I have seen enough of the black one now! lol

You can. It take a lot of time but it's achievable.

 

Unusual colour choice, but very nice.

When I got the 'Twin Turbo' logo off I slightly wrinkled it and didn't want to put it back on an immaculate plenum. The centre cover is still to be fitted :D

 

Great work buddy :D Looks much much better!

Thank you!

 

Very nice mate! You will have to bring that beast to a few meets :D

I will be as soon as I've found the boost leak and run it in!

 

 

Nice work. I'd love to do that to mine, but I know I'll never get the time!

Time is an enemy, especially when you have a family. I'm very glad it's fitted put it that way :)

Will do fella!

 

Very well done rob, You must be pleased :D

Thanks Jimmy! I am pleased, I think it came out quite well in the end.

It was shot blasted and powder coated.

 

 

well done matey, you will have to bring it round. I have seen enough of the black one now! lol

LOL No problem, got a few jobs first including full S2 velour interior :D then I'm going to be out and about in it :D

Good job. The black powercoating looks great. Look forward to seeing it :)

how much does powdercoating a plenum cost?

 

as a guide obviously
