Thanks Danny. It's come along way from what it was to what it is.
Just glad it's turned out as good as it has. Lots of acratches and scrapes to be sorted but other then that its turned out epic
Thanks for the comments


Just seen your post Scott sorry haha. Yer you don't see many modified fingers
I know Roland's making a let ginger but I'm not sure if its re same type of ginger. As there's 2 different types of ginger. Ones a lot more bronze in colour than this is

And the curse of the xe's has begun.
Driveing home from the chippy. Rediculas amount of miss fireing. And was popping and banging its cock off. Wouldn't even drive it was skipping that badly.
Got out and had a quick look over it and I couldn't see any sensors or anything unplugged. Managed to kangeroo it home. Seems like the CPS has spat it's dummy as it was asif it had skipped a tooth on the timeing. Just went and fired it up and it was running as fine as fine can be. Either that or the coil packs falling to peices haha. Will investigate tomorrow and get it sorted

So I fitted my exhaust today. Bit of arseing around. Bit of welding and cutting but I got it there in the end. Couldn't of done it without my mate bens help
Anyways. Had a bloody good hunt over my loom and sensors. Found that my cam position sensor plug was loose. Under closer inspection I noticed that the clip on the plug was on backwards so the plug would just slide on and off without clipping on. Span it round. Clipped it on properly and away she goes. Hopefully that's sorted it.
Pics to follow too

the decat pipe i have is abit too small for the exhaust, so we had to get the oxy bottles out and stretch the decat out abit at the end
then once it was all in it was still a touch too small so wouldnt clamp up tight enough, couple of welds here and there and its lovely
too loud for my likeing to be honest so will buy myself a medium sized silencer and put it in place of my decat pipe at a later date
