225/60/15's with Navara offset on the fronts and landcruiser rear offsets.
6 studs each.

Toyota 1gg blower, Very custom brackets, all LPG of course.

We have 15km of test run under the belts.
It was leaking boost like a seive (deliberately) and IT HAULS!
LIKE A FREIGHT TRAIN!

new belt is coming today to replace version one.
minor modification last night fixed a belt alignment problem.

4 days, three nights,
Tired, sore and grinning like a fool.

Will is a legend and gets huge credit for his hard work, lateral thinking and skill.
Thanks heaps for your work.
Full write up is in the works, after further testing of course.

I will be down for a tune very soon.
Do you know anyone except FKN Ken Vance Motors who would have an air/fuel meter that can test under load?

One of those things that goes in the loud pipe and mounts on the dash allowing you to drive around monitoring mixture?????

Hero, thanks.

I am letting it blow off gently all the time at the moment.

I am very scared of backfire until I get this mixture right.

Oh I will know Adam. there will be a big blue and yellow flame coming out from under my bonnet, followed closely by bits of plastic pod and blower blades.
Big risk.

Engine bay looks good in the daylight :wink:

Hows the radiator coming along? did we win the extra clearence?

I have a jaycar mixture meter, will work with gas after a minor mod, prob not good enough for a proper tune but should give a rough indication of whats happening.

I ll rustle up those bits as well, you can come up and grab them so i can have a drive :D
