Just want to thank everybody for there vote in the Show 'n' Shine position.
I will endevour to make ORSM an even bigger presence at car shows. Once again thank you and bring on Geelong AFD. Also, the car went in early last week but as yet has not been assessed for work to be started. I spoke to the panel shop and they are going to start stripping it back this week and have it all ready to go early January. I should get it back by the end of Jan. Fingers crossed.

The whole front end was pretty much replaced, front left chassis rail was cut out from the firewall forward, the right one was fine. The works taken almost 2 months and I'm hanging to get it back.

It was a fair whack. I reckon if I hit him a bit squarer it would have been a write off. Been over the whole car it is perfect. The paint is A1 all the panels line up the steering is just like it was before the smash. Can't fault them. So if any needs panel work done go to STUD PARK PANELS in Rowville. There service will blow you away.

Woooooooooohoooooooooooooooo
Car is finally back after my continued horror run. Clutch is all good and feels awesome, also had them install a 12psi actuator and a wastgae modifictaion. Also got the car retune with the new cooler. It absolutelly hammers now, it holds boost all the way, and comes on nice a strong really early. I am stocked. Dyno Graphs coming tomorrow.

Better yet why don't you take it for a spin. I know your going for 350 but I couldn't immagine how hard it would be to control more than this.

Nice numbers Joel, can't wait to get near that level. I am going to be aiming at 290+ rwkw. 300 would be nice, and that would be pretty much all I would want.

Yeah they think it's good for around 5rwkw more on a cooler day. I'm not going for huge numbers, especially with only a T5 behind it. It's more than I can handle and I'm very happy.
