I'll tell you all once I've picked up the complete setup on the weekend, but in the meantime my new engine mount finally arrived from powerflex, went for a black series as I was going to use a bbm mount but cba to press one in lol lol

So this happened today...
A good hour of smashing it with a club hammer and pry bar made short work of the standard bottom engine steady :p
Then in went the powerflex item, fair play to them, absolutely piss easy to fix, just lube it up and slide in with your hands /in before giggedy
So far I think that's the best aftermarket mod I've done so far, it's an absolute joy to drive now, gear changes like loading a rifle, amazing throttle response and it's not even that bad for vibration despite being the hardest mount powerflex make, just a little buzz through the steering wheel on idle

Good haul today :p
So I'll spill the beans now that I have the complete setup in my possession
Gsxr bodies machined to fit a cut down gti6 inlet manifold, all machined perfect fit with custom made (at great expense billet aluminium trumpets
Refurbished injectors, butterflies all property set up, takes standard throttle cable etc
Vauxhall Coilpack conversion, just add leads (designed to plug and play into omex loom iirc)
Brand new pipercross sausage filter and machined to fit backing plate. Everything is ready to bolt on, just saving up for mapping, planning on using the standard cams and ecu to start with (will need to talk to jp :p) then save up for aftermarket management, hotter cams, pistons, rods, arp studs, headwork, bottom end work, etc etc etc haha
Looking forward to the journey tbh

I'm not sure yet, Chipwizards seem pretty clued up with these engines and ecus (as jp has nicely demonstrated)
But I might pop into a few local places and see what they reckon, useful place to be Herefordshire if it's engine building gurus you're after :p

Cheers dude, although my personal touch on previous cars has normally been epic pikeyness like old truck fuel filters as catch tanks etc, try to be a bit higher standard with this one haha

Looking at them away from the bodies they each look peferctly symetrical. And the machining quality is second too none
