Awesome!... sound like mine  :grin: (I have no exhaust either at the moment)

Pretty much first time start as well.  :cool:

Let us know when you're going to R-Tech, it's only up the road from me, might have to ask you nicely if I can come and see this beast on the rollers  :cool:

Yeah i was quite surprised how well it started was expecting it to struggle alot more, I did crank it round for about 5mins by hand first maybe that helped?

Had today off work today so I cracked on with the exhaust.

Backbox wedged up and massive subaru tailpipe cut of just to see how it would fit.



Cut the supports off and tacked them on so they would fit the golf rubbers



Then cut it down and tacked the flange and fitted it on the rubbers.




Then cut some bends and tacked them together to join the mid section and the backbox




Exhaust tacked together ready for welding tomorrow.



Just got to decided on a tailpipe then all sorted!  :smiley:
