Get the car picked from Jay
Get race spec rocker cover on
Front cross member painted

As it sits I could fire it on with maybe a fuel check.
If I want td04 on for the dyno then jay will need to,
Fit td04, injectors, fuel pump source a decent clutch and fit,sort out fuelling maybe fit emanage and get it mapped and sort out boost controller.
So chances are if I make it to the dyno il be ct9 @0.8-0.9

It would be great to do a before and after of a ct9 @0.8-0.9 and a td04 some other day @0.8-0.9

Would you mind much if we brought a non Starlet track car for the day?

If its ready (if I can be arsed) we would like a dyno run if there is a space available?

Not much to do to it, just fit a new engine, modify a wiring loom, make an exhaust and air intake, sort out the brakes, mot, easy stuff lol.

It was as predicted :)

Except I forgot to take any pics haha

Anyways cv joint successfully replaced :)

Massive thanks to Ted for the fantastic facilities and guidance.

Tonight had a few scares but nothing worth mentioning :)

Also ted had little choice but to go the extra mile after I dropped my gearbox oil all over his floor :(

Cheers - I trust your in laws didn't mind the noise as I left. I thought about it after the fact and wished I had been quieter!
