Got the scatter ring welded so I now can hang the engine. Need to redo all pipes form the IC due to the longer tranny. This is the first time I have the turbo in its place. I think it´s going to work. Need to cover it with the wing.

Well I finally put it on the floor last night. Wanted to see how low it is and if I need to do some adjustments. I will have to do some small ones. I am also waiting for my glasfibre hood. Still a lot of work but I will run it this summer.

Thanks guys!!
 
Re-did the front end last night. Added it when it was up in the air. Not quite straight. Realised that I have to raise the car a bit. The rear fenders are at 50 mm from the ground. Though it is okay by the rules it´s a little too low. I also need to do some removal of tin at the c-pillar so the tires get some clearance.

Well the wing is almost done. Looks really big but thats the only way to clear the turbo...











I´ve also started on the electrics, found a place for the switches.

Yes sir you are correct  Grin Hopefully we will have 8 cars coming from Västerås, if we can get the cars together. Quite a few of them have had major breakdowns early in the season.

Aha.. the famous Västerår turbo mafia  Smiley  If I ever want to go fast is it ok that I ask you guys if you have room for one extra car?  Cheesy

I hope you manage to get your car ready and that the rest of the guys manage to sort things out and be ready for SCC.
