It’s about 200m2 ~ 2000sq ft. Plus engine room, painting room, parts cleaner and metal room. So maybe 260/2600.

We are 9 spots :D

As far as I know, we still sit in the left seat while driving in Norway :mrgreen:

Bax is pretty cool :D

I like that. I'm gearing up to figure out a new intercooler config on mine right now too. Was thinking of a very similar layout, though with just one big core. When is the new body gonna make an appearance?

Hopefully soon :)

They needed the car complete for an ID check to get registration, then I’ll pick it up, cut the rear luggage tray etc out and lift it over

Steel.

The pan has “some” rear weight bias :twisted:

Everything kept falling off my desk as I tried to view the picture so I rotated it.

WIth some MTAD (Masking Tape Aided Design), I got the intake pipes mocked up. Made the notched pieces for the plenums, and glued them into place. Pretty pleased with my TIG at the moment :)

The reste will get welded hopefully during the weekend, and I hope to have the intercooler mounted to the chassis and the whole intake done by Sunday evening!
