    Motor in i decided to step it up a level got a new manifold made.IMG_0429.jpgIMG_0430.jpgIMG_0431.JPG
    Then went for an intercooler i decided on a pwr unit as i didn't want to cut holes in the bonnet or other parts and their just down the road. IMG_0432.JPGIMG_0433.jpgIMG_0446.JPGI went for the pwr 5x6 set up and i had them put fittings in each end of the cooler for temp sensors to monitor in and out temps.Also added a patrol docta air box. Decided to put the heat exchanger under the front corner of the tray got busy with the welder and grinder.IMG_0453.JPGIMG_0457.JPGIMG_0454.JPGIMG_0460.JPG I updated the intercooler piping to unclutter the engine bay.IMG_0470.JPG I'm going to upsize the cooler in the near future as i feel this one isn't big enough and get a new inlet manifold built.

    Picked up a pillar pod and fitted 2 autron gauges 1 boost/pyro and a dual battery monitor.IMG_0476.jpgIMG_0475.jpg Went to jaycar and picked up a plastic box that looked like a good size and fitted an engine watchdog tm4 which monitors heat exchanger temp and controls the fan and fitted the pwr cooler temp monitor below that and three switches for fan, wetter pump and lift pump yet to be fitted.IMG_0479.JPGIMG_0474.JPG
