in total yes, the car cost me £10,000 and the rest is everything i have done to the car, including paints, oils, service parts the lot.

iaz, yours will probably be just a tad faster than mine top end, but i recon it will be close up to 120 ish

i think yours is high 320 bhp/tonne mine will be high 310 bhp/tonne.

work has now ground to a halt because i dont have a car..

whats left to do

1. fit header tank
2. plumb pipes from header to manifold to chargecooler
3. alter the throttle body wires to work with the 2.0 s/c TB
4. extend the MAP sensor
5. remake intake system
6. install relay for the chargecooler pump
7. install chargecooler pump
8. send off ECU for base map putting on
9. re-route fuel lines

then just the basics like bolting everthing down permenantly and re-fitting the clams etc and then its pretty much done.

looks good mate! insurance is gone up by £100 this year so though of selling, got someone offering me 12k for it without speedlines, hardtop and 4pots! so means i will have owned the car for 18+months and made 4k+ profit in process!

ummm, also saw a vx220 at rockingham on track and was disapointed in its pase! had nitrons and 888's and i dont think the vx220 would have kept up with the van on track!
