Cookstars "mystery machine" drag/track project
I thought I'd start a little thread with what's going on with my 99 UK 2000
It started off with me as a £500 runabout through the winter. I bought it as a non runner (unplugged MAF sensor and drove home in it)
When I picked it up it had a printout from SRR (mapped by JGM) for 318 BHP.
Here's a few pics of how she stands now.
Spec list is as follows
Engine (current)
Unknown.
Turbo
VF20
Gearbox
STI7 6 Speed box, dif, hubs etc etc.
Brakes
Front Newage Brembo calliper with PF pads and uprated discs
Rear Brempo with standard pads and discs
Exhaust
Full 3 inch decat system (turbo back)
Fuelling
SWRD 290 fuel pump
Suspension
Tein superstreet coilovers
Wheels and tyres
18 inch inovit with 225/40/18 T1rs
The car is going away on Sunday to have the following fitted. (some pics below)

RCM wrapped headers and up pipe
Engine tuner 2.1 stroker
RCM head gaskets
RCM header fitting kit
Kevlar timing belt
Newage Spec C heads
Lateral performance 900 cc flowed injectors

Sorry, should have made that clear, since I bought it, I have added the coilovers, brakes and gearbox.
Also the wheels
Only changed spark plugs and Maf on the engine side though, with the downpipe decat it made 341 at Surrey Rollng Road, about an hour before spitting its head gaskets out.

Dump valve delete bung, head gaskets, JTi looms, and header fixing kit have arrived today.
Only part outstanding is the ECU to be returned from Alcatek. They have assured me that it will be with the garage by Friday (crossing fingers/toes and everything else)
JGM is booked to put a base map on the car on Monday, to get the car drivable and to be able to test, ready for full mapping on Wednesday at Surrey.
