Slowly. Driving it again after changing gearboxes. The hatch is going to be a winter project.
Now my only car as the Mrs is using the van (Saab shit itself).

How's the leg?

I love that intake system, I always though that with this intake system, without some sort of cold air feed, its almost pointless, but you have it nailed down. Smile

this car will sound as epic as it looks. Keep up the great work Smile
