...There is so much more I would like to do, I've owned her since late 2007, and the swap only happened this year! Budgeting has been reasonably tight since, but my wife was kind enough to give the go ahead on the exhaust for my August birthday.
I've had some help from some other Scoob people here in London to make things possible
I try to do as much as I can, but take it to the shops for stuff thats over my head or beyond my equipment/tool availability.

Hoping to progress on a short shifter, Accessport, speakers... the stuff that always seems to find priority further down the list, and I try to find the 'previously enjoyed' parts.

I'm aware of someone asking for more pics between the first year of ownership and this year, but to be honest, there aren't many! Just a few of some accident damage and a couple from some meets here and there, this last summer the pics have been worthy!

Here's a sound clip!

Had an issue with boost surge, so I decided to replace my questionable 'boost' hoses with some eBay stuff..

I'll be looking into better securing the intercooler next, will need to make up some brackets to hold it down. I have some zip ties holding in place for now. :lol:

Well, that did squat..
Flow is better, don't hear noisy leaks, but unfortunately I still have a surge issue.
I suspect the BPV spring is too strong and is creating a flow problem, any ideas from anyone??

I did find something about a three port solenoid that can solve this problem, I may try that next

Wow, that is a really sharp looking car. Good luck on your surging.
