Fired first turn of the key..running on an old 4.6 Map with exhaust only under the block hence the loudness. New exhaust to be made next week I hope smile

What water injection system are you using Neal? and on what basis does it inject? - seems like the perfect solution for the Turbo tho.

Cheers again thumbup

Nick - I'm running 2 Aquamist systems (not plumbed in yet fully) going to inject 1 x 0.5mm jet in each turbo (pre turbo) and 1 x 1mm jet in the inlet pipe just before the TB.

Had a single system when it was a rover engine and you could see the temps tumble when activated but it never got crazy hot with the big front mount intercooler anyway.

Think they should waive at least 5 years' worth of membership fees for allowing them to run a feature... wink

Daz that's priceless mate....and what a story for sprint, "man does stunning engineering feet of slinging a twin turbo LS into chimaera only to find the bonnet doesn't fit" lol.

Neal - I have followed this with great interest and hats off to you fella, that looks terrific and all from a single garage with no room to bum a cat by the look of it. Pistonheads at its finestbow
