Will post pics of all mods as I go!!! I have my Andriod icc sitting here ready to install that will have to wait abit longer. Changed my mind on the v8 bonnet the seller was really good once it arrived and I noticed the one in this pic had to have it so returned the standard bulge bonnet now awaiting the BF GT style bonnet with dual vented bulge That with the djr rear wing should make the car look better Just a question to anyone that's reading, whats the best tyres available for the bf with 19 inch wheels with the new power tyres on the car arent the greatest hoping to do this weekend will update with more pics and details of build so looking to replace asap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the bonnet purely cosmetic? One issue is the under bonnet heat from the turbo, if the vents help with then that's a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killerxr6turbo Member 50 Member For: 5y 7m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 11/12/18 02:46 AM Author Share Posted 11/12/18 02:46 AM thanks I like how its coming along, the bonnet purely for cooling the engine and turbo, just deciding which way to go finding out if it cools has been an issue cant find anyone that has one just bout to start a post to see if any answers from users on here. If it doesn't cool down to any significant level I will be just putting the steel hump bonnet on boys in bayswater can supply painted for 695 where as the twin vented fiberglass bonnets is over twice the price and has to be shipped from nsw then still have to get painted I will make decision once I can get a few answers. the answers I have already from a couple of mechanics is that it won't help with cooling turbo as vents in wrong place for that. So if that is truly the case wont get it and just get the bulge bonnet as I'm putting a lot of chrome into the engine bay also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look into ceramic coating as well, if you want to help keep under bonnet temps down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killerxr6turbo Member 50 Member For: 5y 7m 4d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 11/12/18 01:15 PM Author Share Posted 11/12/18 01:15 PM thanks the ceramic coating is certainly an option my mate who worked for ford when they built the ba turbo. He states that the vents where they are situated wont do much, purely for cosmetics so if the vent was at the back of the hump it would release heat better so confining the heat with the ceramic coating is a great idea. Hopefully get car back from nizpro tomorrow so I can do some work to the car need to do the front wheel bearings first then some fun with the cosmetic stuff and the android unit hopefully this weekend if not next week hope to order bonnet in two days just need to make up my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few ways to check but it's probably not worth the cost, for a non sponsored, one off affair. This is turning into a sweet car, get more pics and videos up when you can.
