| Didnt do all the welding, I owned a sheetmetal shop some time ago and am a bit rusty now. I had a mate of mine at the sheet shop weld it (freeby). I just set it up ready to go. |

Nightime shots?
Is it a digital camera?
If so it's probably got some presets like "nightime" (no I'm NOT being sarcy!) or "fireworks" or "Sunset" or "Natural" that might work better?
Go on, have a play! |

looks great man, good work so far! keep it up.
that picture to me looks like theres some grease or something on the lense? as what crisp said, check for special functions like "nighttime" or perhaps "candlelight". if it's a sony, these will be pictures on the turntable thingy used to switch mode |

Ok capgun heres your close ups. I had to wait for some daylight, been getting home a bit late from work this wek.
304 grade 16 gauge stainless steel mesh with each light having 12 blue white/white blue(whatever) led's. Lights are from Repco auto parts. Looked for about 2 weeks to find something I thought was suitable.
If you use stainless steel mesh dont get 316 grade as it can basically only be cut with a friction disc and is too dificult to work or put small holes in for screws/bolts. Sheetmetal shops wont even cut it in there guillotine.
Left side no flsah. |

| Perforated metal. Be carefull on any air intakes as it doesnt have a very big free area compared to mesh or expanded metal even though it looks like it. |

I see what you mean Must create more turbulence as it enters the pipe/duct. It was from a sidestep from a 4wd (about 2mm thick stainless).
Are you going to have an airflow meter on your capp somewhere (Is that affilated with your line of work?) |

My line of work encompasses pretty well every thing to do with air flow that we need for our Cappos.
Perforated mesh does not have a very big free area even though it may look so.
Put it this way you could liken it to a brick wall with a few gaps in it, whereis expanded metal and mesh have far greater air flow characteristics due to there more aerodynamic shapes.
Perforated metal is very deceiving, mainly due to its appearance as far as air flow is concerned.

| As long as my capp doesn't boil over I should be ok I hope What about the original mesh is that good - maybe if you're bored one day you could do a comparison of mesh! (I have no idea how long it takes to set up something like that though!) |

Boost Controller fitted now. Its a GIZZMO IBC (intelligent boost controoler) made in New Zealand.
Quite small, only about 24mm x 53mm x 125mm long. I selected this one due to the size and its characteristics. It can show BAR or PSI.
The rear part of the ash tray slide has to be cut out as the photo shows with the parts ready to assemble. |

Left to Right.
Map sensor output.
Oxygen Sensor output.
Fuel injector duty cyle output.
The hole on the far right is for the immobilers light
Makes it easy to check what happens with mods and I use the meters/instruments with what ever car. |
