DeeC’s 306 VNT Turbo Build / Show Car Project

[darrencurry0808]

In order to remove the fuse box in the bay, I realised that I would have to extend the wires to give some length as to where I would be hiding the mess..

So I began labelling each side of the wires where I would be making the cut ( ALWAYS DISCONNECT BATTERY BEFORE HAND!! )



I figured if I mounted the contents under the front wheel arch area they would be completely out of the way and hopefully safe from water and dirt, may need some form of waterproofing just incase!

Not as easily accessed as the bumper will need to come off if I need at the fuses, but Ill not complain with that [emoji1]



Using wires from an old loom I had laying around, I extended the wires soldering and heat shrinking each connection, tidying that up with some new conduit and job done!



Also got the power-flex lower engine mount fitted.

Just need to order my top mount and gearbox mount now, whats everyones opinion on which brand is best to go for ???



Exhaust temperature / Exhaust pressure gauge’s fitted to the manifold. Hoping the place of fitting is okay for taking measures from.

I bought just an ordinary oil pressure gauge, and will be using it to measure the exhaust pressure..

I bought a 1/8 NPT male to male fitting to thread into the manifold, using a female connector and some copper brake pipe too cool the heat before reaching the sensor as this is not supplied with an oil press gauge.
