    Thanks glider, The cream interior was number 1 on my list of 'must have' when I was looking for my car then it had to be blue or green on out side!

    Ps I like the 'Owns a 4-wheeled garden statue Click here to enlarge

    It was 253 befor I took it apart. That was with a xe cam retarded half a tooth with vernier, 8.1 EDS FMIC and phase 2 chips. It's now got a hybrid k16 and I've only done 1500 mi since build so not ready to put back on rollers. I can't see it being much more to be honest. The main reason I rebuilt was to check shell for rust and to generally clean the car up.

    It's got other smaller up grades, but what difference they make to power I'd say is arguable
    10 mm HT leads
    Divorced down pipe
    Platinum plugs gapped at 0.65
    Updated actuator
    Larger boost pipes
    Cold feed to air box from towing eye cover
    Rocker cover oil tray mod
    Lip on turbo and top hat entry removed
    Wire mesh from AFM removed
    In car air freshener
    Also have a switch to turn 4x4 on/ off on the dash .
