Just picked up a pair of nice AP 4 Pot Calipers for the car. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cruisewirral.com/gallery/uploads/01/05june/cruisewirral22019.jpg) Already got some 8" bells, but need to find the rotors that best suit for the best price. Best cost effective route will be 330mm x 32mm, but if prices arent too bad, Ill try and get some 355mm dia rotors, and space the caliper apart to get some 38mm thick ones in there too - though it does all depend on the price Also fitted last week was a front and rear, alloy strut brace, and a 320mm steering wheel Ive also fitted the Apexi Super AFC fuel computer, so injector and MAF changing wont be a problem now, so as soon as the brakes are on, I can really concentrate on making it go a bit quicker now the suspension and brakes are sorted

Just ordered a new turbo for the car Buying the lot in bits, rather than a kit, so as to match a better turbo for my car. Heres some pics (The stainless pipes are 3"  ) Its a T04e with .50 a/r turbine, and .70 a/r compressor, with a .50 housing. It should be boosting by just before 3000rpm, making 10psi by 3400-3500, and on full chat by 4000rpm and with the right mods, this turbo will support 500bhp+ Just looking at a top mount manifold to mount it, and external wastgate with a screamer pipe that will run to the floor under the engine - its gonna be quite loud

Ultimate aim is 400-450bhp, but there is plenty of other stuff I need to get there yet I think as soon as the turbo goes on, it'll need a clutch, Then some bigger injectors, differnet managment at some point (The Super AFC will do for a while), Bigger AFM, Inlet cam and ultimatly rebiuld the engine with forged pistons, "H" beam forged rods, and a metal headgasket. Then it'll be a case of what the std gearbox will take - I belive their limit is circa 450bhp. Quickest in the UK??? No idea really, I know there are a few pushing 500bhp

Had to go top mount as this turbo wont physically fit under the manifold where the std turbo fits. Just ordered this kit to fit it: ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cruisewirral.com/gallery/uploads/01/05july/cruisewirral04026.jpg) Screamer pipe is at the bottom left of the pic and will just drop down to point at the floor under the engine. As far as I know they are not illegal  It'll make a hell of a noise on boost, but when not on boost the noise will be no different
