Well here a few pics of the engine all wired up and plumbed just for the record it costs $1500 just for the fittings to plumb in the firewall side alone

Also its worth a mention our system fits the 12A 13B and RX8 13B as well

Great pictures Tom, now I am really confused. It appears you have a water radiator on one side ( will this be ducted?) an oil cooler on the other and another cooler underneath. I am very interesed in the cooling, the rest is easy.

Yes it will be ducted the idea is to get the ducted air to flow back across the engine this will also provide an elevated temp in the cowling as at this point we are going to use a pod filter , the oil cooler should also pass air past the exhaust as this has a heat sheild etc all fitted and the flow of air is pretty impressive even if I do say so .

The lower cooler is in its own little space it has air supplied to it from the front it is a bit like having a scoop under the belly but I managed to incorporate it into the cowling this gets tons of air and I meen tons I wont blow my trumpet just yet but tommorrow we should find out just how good it really works then I will be telling everyone .
I am just waiting for the map for the computor and then lets see just how well it sucks , squeezes and blows ,

cheers Tommy

Hey tom this is really great picture i am wonderded after to see yes it's great idea to o get the ducted air to flow back across the engine oil cooler must also pass air from the exhaust gases which has a thermal shield equipped and air flow is quite impressive.
