Saw this at the Herts meet last Tuesday and all I can say is what a beastie. Just an exhaust issue to be sorted and we can hear it roar properly....

Massive congrats to everyone involved. Whoozy, your balls must be as big as your bank balance to attempt something of this scale! Fair paly.....

Must be a relief for Paul too, to see it working safely, it's just another project to add to his already impressive portfolio. A V6 is something i'm considering to do late next year when funding is available and I know where I'l be taking my car.... :thumleft: :wink:

This thread hasn't just been an interesting read, its been an education. Anyone undertaking a project should do it this way, loads of photos to tell the reader whats going on which can help those who are considering making changes, big/small/engine/interior/bodystyling etc...

Top stuff Whoozy. Take note people....

It sounds amazing by the way, congrats! :thumleft:

It's probably in a previous page of this post but is the v6 you have used a 3litre? I'd imagine the power you've got from that with a turbo is huge? :-k

How much would you charge to do it all again for an IMOC member then? I think you would have great interest that's for sure.

So what kind of power have you managed to get out of it then, boost levels on the turbo etc.? I'd imagine it would see a very safe/reliable 350bhp at a minimum?

If you wouldn't mind getting a total cost together that would be greatly appreciated as I wouldn't mind going down this route myself down the line. If you don't fancy putting up your costs across the forum feel free to drop me a pm :thumleft:

10psi is what im boosting at,as for bhp figures i hav'nt had it dyno'd yet so couldn't say, prob about 320bhp though as only 10psi.

Ive noticed at some points you can see in the mirror my head getting snapped back due to the umf of the power, i cant wait to get the new exhaust system on,
