The standard engine wouldn't do then?

Sounds like an exciting build!

There was a chap on here a while ago who went to Tracktive when building his kit car and had the Hydra Nemesis ECU fitted, and got some impressive results.

You're gonna need some real rubber though. What a build!

Looks awsome but you may struggle to fit that Nurby Blue hard top

Looking good.

I remember this as I know the guy that did the head work.

I wonder how Pete Findlay is getting on with his Dax?

I'll dig his thread up.

Looks very nice Looks like a very high quality, high-specced build.

My progress on the Dax Rush build has been slowed (stopped ) by globe-trotting work commitments recently. I've got a couple of weeks off at the end of the year, and I'm intending to blitz my way into it then.

Mine's going to be running pretty much stock engine-wise, at least to start with.

As a matter of curiosity, what are you doing about exhaust manifold fabrication and routing?

Pete
probably going with Goode fabrications in Aylesbury for the exhaust and manifold. not sure whether to go the normal side exit route or a special that loopps round the fron of the engine and exits flush to the bodywork just behind the front wheel area, a bit like the toniq system
When do you think you will be on the road?
