Looking good Scotty, you can never have too much bling.
Thanks lads!!! Bullbar fitted and a couple of shots ... turbo boost controller fitted so hopefully with 9 or 10 pounds he should be hauling!! Fixed the dizzy also - superb!!!

looking good, sounding better and driving great I hope :-)
Well, been a while since an update, and quite frankly the longest single period in 15 months that Tank has had nothing done to it!! Poor thing!!! lmao
Soooo .. organised a Mako 12000lb winch with dyneema rope and remote/cordless control from the boys at Torq4x4 and will have that fitted in the coming weeks if it will go on the bar - appears I haven't left much room doing the intercooler and pipe work, so it may not fit. That said, if not, the guy who did the bar reckons he did the mounts a bit "too close" anyway, and is going to build me a new one for the balance of sale on mine! Not bad service.
New heavy duty valve body for the auto box, temp controller and manual torque converter lockup switch go in over the coming weeks also, so that should sort out the flaring and change issues created since the turbo went in.
After that, a fuel tank goes back in (bigger injectors, and new ECU also) and then off to the dyno he goes - and hopefully he'll have power to burn!!
I'm still stuck on getting a 6" spring and throwing 35's on it as well - and that'll come with some upgraded diff gears (4.325:1) from Marks Adapters. But not until next year ...
That'll pretty much see out the 'large' ticket items and from there, new windows seals/rubbers all round, new front seats, door trims (thinking of doing thin checker plate?), and general TLC to the interior to get it ship shape.
Planning on entering into the Springs 4x4 Gymkhana competition in March, so want most of this sorted before then ... fingers crossed!!!

TANK and checker plate are meant to be! Put some on the outside and will start to resemble a Hummer!
