BGTV8 VQ40HRGA Race engine build

Great to see this up and running. Dying to see some pictures. Thought this might have ended up as a forgotten project.

So it is all done apart from final chassis set up and initial dyno. We will run the car with the standard engine but race induction before fitting the 4-litre stroker engine. First test day mid/late Jan and first race meeting (with stroker installed will be end of April)

We're really pleased with the way the induction has come up

Ooooo I wonder what the induction noise is like with that intake and a stripped interior.

Build done, first start (but MP4 is too big to attach).

Just waiting on dyno operator and tuner to return from summer break and we'll put a tune into it and then we are off testing.
