Wow the motor pic looks soo good! Why do you not turn the intake down into the open well there?

Wow!! Nice work! And your car was the one with the most number of photos on that website of anything there!!
Looks schmick, and geez you've done some nice work to that motor! It's pretty rare that something jammed with that much custom mechanicals looks so tidy & beautiful! Great work!

seals the deal for me... I now know what I want the RC to look like (exterior aesthetics) and now I have all the parts

You always make me jealous

Thanks Jordan! There's a flat metal sheet covers that area because the fuse box is under it. However, there is a hose from the fog into a trumpet recessed on the sheet to feed in cold air. Should really take a pic of it sometime...

Good Your car and work is ridiculously clean.

Hey man! You work wonders with your MX-3. All the best styling and proper parts - those rims are epic! All the same stuff I want I hope my MX-3 will be this good in the future. Truly inspirational worklog

Hello,

Marco what parts did you use to relocate oil filter? did it work well?

He Marco,

Any updates ? What have you been working on lately?

This car is X-rated...very sexy....

It's been a while since any updates. I've been flat out with exams. Finally have a bit of time about me so I tried these again today!

Since last time several important changes:

-Jenvey linkage between the two banks, £130+ odd of precision engineering... ouch but made all the difference
-Adjusted the spacing so they are more perfectly inline
-gave the return springs an extra wrap to snap back down more firmly
-flattened down the flanges to seal better
-opted to use the thermoblok spacers to give more room and a longer intake tract.

You can see they're idling a LOT better. Currently my carPC has been crashing a lot so I can't try and tune until I sort that

That is sick......This is def. a goal of mine. Nice work.

Despite the great sound,how much gain you think you get from these Itbs?And without an air filter isn't a little danger too?
Vris is gone i guess..

he's only running it without filters because he's only getting it to idle and not driving around, i'm sure if he was gonna drive around he'd put some filters on

That motor is disgustingly clean
The Surgeon General I'm sure wouldn't mind it sitting in an operating room somewhere. Congrats on the build!

amazing
