    Huge thanks to Acidburn (Peter)

    He drove up today to help find/sort my boost leak and fit the MarkH mod.
    That all went to plan, and we certianly found the leak..... the bottom pulley had rubbed very slightly at some point againt the back of the IC and made a really small slit
    Whilst it being very annoying, atleast we found where the leak was, and can now get it sorted.
    Boost gauge was also fitted, and its holding a healthy 11psi, so now its just a case of stopping it escaping!

    Onwards and upwards

          @dest - anything to help mate, it was good meeting you and seeing some of your previous car pics and listening to the music you've got/made I'll try get up for a bit longer next time, thanks for the picture that looks brilliant, might have to get it printed off and framed.

          Glad we found what the problem was, your cars looking like a good start for a project car and a very good base to start on.

          @Cullam3n - Lol i'll have to try get up soon, have a look at your car and your mates 'ur'

          @terrybullwon - cheers mate, dest's camera has certainly made it shine.

              You can have one too if you have a camera and tripod

                Nice camera trick, or should I say photoshop trick - either way - I have only the vaguest of notions how you did that. Neato !

                  Yes, its photoshop, I posted how its done in the Photoshop thread

                  all you need is a tripod for your camera (or some other way of keeping it 100% still if you are creative)
                  Simply take 2 shots of the car, one with the bonnet open, and the other shut.
                  The camera must not move atall between the shots!
                  Then you merge them together in Photoshop, remove the part that shows the open bonnet, and fade out the closed one slightly
