i've removed the pipe from the cam cover to the air intake,to stop hot

air from inside cam cover being taken back into the air for the supercharger,the pipercross is just a filter to stop oil being sprayed

onto my engine.

Awesome Kimi

Just had a look at your works web site, do they/you do servicing for other makes e.g. Yaris’ and things like tyres? Or is it just Mitsubishi?

Hi Kimi,

what are they from if you don't mind me asking? Any idea on what calipers and brackets and their dimensions? And have they been chosen with your S'Legerra's in mind?

Nice work on the filter and the carbon cover :thumbsup:, that engine bay looks shiny and clean as ever. :yes:

And I want Chris' tool trolley :lol:

Cheers, Yves.

Wow kim that cover looks excellent! nice price too! so i think i may have to take some of the borg bits down for "carboning"!

It looks pretty good now i reckon in the engine bay! But everyone who's intending to move there filter there, its a complete and utter mission but it looks good nows it done!

Yyvan, you can have my toolbox if you come pay the bills for it!! :eek:

Unfortunatly we only really service Mitsubishi's and subaru's really.

yeah chris that guy from cradley is a nice find,made good job of cutting and shaping it round edges too.He had sheets of carbon fibre in its rare state there.

gave us some cards with his details,he'll make anything.

What all is required to pull that off. I assume some serious fiddling with bracketry and hardware, but do the electricals actually make it there? Or some need lengthening?

Yes alot of brackets were made and when you turn the Battery the part the Battery sits on is too short for the Battery to sit on :unsure: thats where the

alloy battery tray came into it :lol: it has to be bolted to the body.

and yes the earth wires have to be moved and extended.
