Just awsome shots mate ... looks like a tonne of fun, and the new GQ is a beauty ... what's the story on the double intake on the bonnet? Probably a stupid question (no such thing as stupid questions, just stupid people!!! lol) but is that twin turbo??

That's correct, there is no such thing as stupid questions on this forum Bigrig.
The twin scoops are to allow more air into the top mounted intercooler, it has an after market DTS turbo and a modified fuel pump, currently about 20/22 pounds boost.
Just don't get behind me when I put the boot into it otherwise you will not see the road in front of you, love doing that when I get a convertible behind me

20/22 pounds of boost??? Holy sh!t ...
How quick will that burn out the engine/turbo?? I thought increasing to 12-14 psi was really pushing it, but there you go, I am an idiot as it turns out as I didn't even realise you could push it that high (in non-comp style vehicles that aren't heavily modified to cope that is).
Sounds like a dead set beast ... and let's face it, people in convertibles deserve all they get ...

Yeah mate the more that I read the more that I think that it is way over boosted, going to have a look at it on the weekend, pretty sure that the boost was even higher when the original owner had it...
