Default Build pics!

First day on the car in a while and not really achieved that much but managed to get my ecu located permanently as well as fabricate and weld a bracket for the battery tray.

Engine harness perfect length for where I wanted the ecu


Ecu in place giving easy access for the laptop


Mount fabricated and welded in place, painted chassis colour


Battery tray now in place with a handy location for the junction box


And finally the hurricane induction in place hideously expensive but looks and sounds awesome especially when v-tec engages

Good steady progress.

I presume you painted the ECU case?
