Due to land at Chez Hurdy tomorrow....

New style Carbon Fibre paddle shifters.

Shouldn't lose those pesky small paddle shifters when turning the wheel anymore with the size of these beauties.  :drool:

A few more pics of the water meth install.

View from the front...."looks normal"

Hidden at the back is a "T" piece boost tap that goes to the sensor on the controller

And just to the side of the boost tap is the tap in to the intake manifold - best shot I could get as it is that well tucked away!

An early pic I took of where the water meth pipe and the boost tap pipe go through the bulkhead (before the silicone was added to protect the pipes)

Another pic I took to try and get a pic of the tap that didn't quite work, but shows the in-line non-return valve for the water/meth mix (just see the red bit at the right hand side)

This pic shows the wired in fuses for safety overload protection of the pump.

Pic of the wiring and pipework going up the side of the floor trim

Bottle!

Finished rear install - very neat and you can just make out the black custom bracket that was fitted and sprayed black to mount the bottle to.


The earth point and power for the controller were taken from under the gearbox section of the dash (unfortunately no pic)

Pics of the paddle shifters fitted. Slightly different design to what I thought, but these actually look better and suit the shape of the wheel.  :cool:
