antera309 3 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Your mechanic did a superb job of the conversion by the looks of it - it looks really "factory". Very, very nice indeed. I'm more than a little bit jealous... Link to post Share on other sites
purpledragon 0 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Cheers guys.He's one of the best in the business Nick, and highly recommended. He isnt happy about the placement of the air filter, but theres bugger all room in there. Gonna have to get a cold air feed in there from somewhere!!?? !dodge Link to post Share on other sites

Gonna have to get a cold air feed in there from somewhere!!?? !dodge [/quote']You could fit the factory airbox for an even more "OEM" look, but you'd probably have to re-locate the battery and washer bottle to the boot.The guy that did the conversion should consider making up a few of the custom downpipes that go between the 24v manifold and VR6 exhaust/cat. 24v conversions are starting to get popular now, and he could probably sell the custom downpipes for good money.
