bumper made up and lights installed, bonnet and wings off, shipped off to have a full rewire

wiring is pretty much done now, stuck it on the RR to see what it makes power wise before sorting it out
it made all of 125hp, biggest reason the massive smoke show outside of bad injectors 10degree of timing and a big turbo housing and small injectors, swapping over to the new bits will see it all back in order

I bet the purists probably don't like this, but screw them! This thing looks like a blast!

This thing is insane. Definitely not a swap I would think of doing, but it looks like it will be a blast to drive. I like the mad max look you have going too.
