great choice goin with the holset.you wont be disappointed with it

by the way,welcome to the forum

 

cool build!!

though, your sound cuts out at 11 seconds

 

cheers thanks guys,

yeah the engine was too loud for the mic i will do another

a few little items manufactured tonight in the garage, first of all was how was i going to fill the engine with oil, solution make this from an old dizzy and a breather from a Hydraulic tank looks good me thinks



second was a mount for the tach and the boost gauge poped to B&Q and had a look through there metal stock and made this







last of all fitted the electronic boost controller into the dash



thanks for looking cheers andy

 

Top man, you must have some ***** doing that to a Beetle engine. Get yourself down to RTTS, you'll be a God.

 

cheers getting there now but still loads to do

thats the charge cooler header tank and pump i have also fitted a drain valve that goes through the boot floor so i can drain the ice water from it.



i have been thinking about the water injection tank i want to hide as much as i can so my thoughts are to cut the fuel tank in about a 1/4 of the way along and weld a bulkhead into it, weld it back up with a second filler neck for the water injection what do you think?

cheers andy

 

we need more vids!! WITH SOUND!!

 

+1 i wouldnt mind seeing some more vids

 

cheers guys more vids coming, cant start the car at home the locals are compalining bit more done


Right got home this afternoon and cut a hole on the tank (after eptying and washing out )



Welded in a bulk head, fitted a filler and also a leval switch
