Very nice mate, looks good, and hope it is driving without any more melted pistons

Just a bit of an update: Got new exhaust fitted yesterday, very happy with the result, as i wasnt a big fan of the cannon out the back and it helps keep with the theme of being a sleeper. Also had the BOV removed as being in the process of roadworthying the ute. The system consists of a new high flow cat, into a large straight through muffler with twin outlet to twin 3" dump pipes either side of the spare wheel. Sounds good and is running heaps better, as with the large exhaust and hollowed out cat it took it a fair while to get going. If anyone needs some awesome exhaust work done in the GV area , Midland Mufflers in Shepparton are the place to go (excuse the plug haha).

Had a bit of a play around with some piping as i want to fit an air box and change my compressor piping around abit just to clean it up. Got a BA XR8 pod airbox, as it has a provision for charcol canister connection. Excuse the dodgy cardboard and sticky tape haha just abit creative and was curious to see what it would look like.

thanks heaps for the info turbovr4, sounds exactly like mine. My bell housing and extension housing look like they are off a differnet gearbox like the original triton gearbox not 100% sure as the casting's look considerably different. Are these borg warners any good? Just trying to determine if it is worth the risk of giving it punishment or look for something that will handle a decent amount of power down the track and just be done with it.

Cheers for the info guys, much appreicated.

I like the sound of it. How's the setup off track? Ie pit areas, fuel station etc. Been a long time since I have been to Calder. I will definitely try to get there

i did think that, ive got a k frame from a 380 with all the suspension and brakes on it, was looking at it then maybe some challenger or 4x4 triton rotors could help, i'd love the 4 pots of the NT pajero, theyed helped me pull up no worries lol
