The top of the AFM had already been off before I got the car. I didn't think that it would effect WOT but it did

It looks like it may,The wife has put claim to the compact.

The couple is a real mess on the inside

The auto is installed back into the compact, also swapped out the radiators and fans. Just so I could put the electric fan into the couple

Replace the rear crank seal in the coupe today. I was a bit surprised that it would be leaking at 100k

Anyway I will put the manual box in tomorrow

Always wondered if the charger would sit on top of the lower half of the manifold and clear the bonnet.. Could make for a tidy package

Can you not just use a bypass after the supercharger?

What ratio is the supercharger being spun at

Looks like you've done well welding those cast bits. Would you be able to explain what you use for cleaning and welding? 4043 rod, pre heating and plenty of cleaning?

Keep up the good work
