Less than 2 weeks left before i take it out on the roads again :D Front bumper well be back from paint next week. Been busy fixing a lot of smal things i have forgotten.

Latest miniprojekt was to mold in S80 sidemarkers in the trim on the fender. Dunno how it will look yet, but i hope it turns out alright.

i like the bumper in those pics. i dont know how it will look when painted but it is different. need a monster intercooler though.. cant put that hole to waste.

I excited to see how it's looks on the car, and next week i will know :) I have a racecooling intercooler, but it's not so visible though. The ac-cooler is in the way :(

New intercooler-piping. The old one was a hasty work that was giong to be used as a temporary solution, but i've had it for, quite some time now. Will be using the same pipe over the enging though. Won't build a new one there until i've built a new exhaust manifold + bought a new turbo.

Front bumper back from paint. Will put it on as soon as the intercooler-pipe is welded properly.

One week more, then i will take it out again B)

FastWagon95: Thanks

my_name_is: My project isn't ending, i't will just stand still some time now. I must buy a lot of parts before the next step in this project, and i can't afford it right now. I won't be finished for a long time.

Yes, the a/c will be kept this year. I may take the whole a/c system away next year if the quartert mile times are too low B)

I have bought a spare cylinder head that will be ported and so on. I will begin there, then im going to build a new exhaust manifold and downpipe to accomodate a large turbo. I´m aiming for 450hp now. But i'm quite sure i wont have that kind of power until next summar i'm afraid.

VolvoDriver2: Thanks. I have i 500 mile trip planned for next weekend to run it in :D
