    Smile very interesting...

    just read through your project thread, car sounds fantastic and looks great in your hill-climb vid's.

    will you be doing avon park this weekend? if not i would like to pop over sometime and meet you and have a look at the T5-S, if that would be ok?

    Going to try this out this weekend at Avon, see if I can draw some cool air into the engine bay. If it works, then I'll fit it properly with some ducting.

    have you put a switch on the original volvo fan as well? If not simply earth either the yellow, or yellow with white stripe wire from the fan relay on the slam panel. One of the wires is slow speed while the other is full, can't remember which

    Urgh! that's bad, I watched the vid of that happening, it's a good job you weren't at the end of the run doing 100+mph. It's a shame to see all that hard work getting splattered across the windscreen. Are you gonna salvage the vents for the new bonnet, repair the whole bonnet or go for something new (possibly involving locking pins)

    Emlyn has a bonnet for me, and the scoop is fine, so all will be ok , and yes bonnet pins will be used in the future.

    Cost wise, the supercharger swap cost about £350, the car owes me about £1500 all together including the cost of the car, the most expensive bit has been the suspension.
