Turbo Cinq Post 2!!!!!
Please see the first post here: http://www.modifiedmonsters.com/t1393-turbo-cinq
UPDATE
Thought I would let you in on the slight changes we have been doing to our Cinq!!!!!
This picture was taken on the 7th April:
Started stripping the dash to find a mass on wires!!!
This picture was taken on the 25th April:
After a lot of head scratching and cardboard cut outs we decided on the design
These were taken today!!!
It has been a slow process, but now all the wiring and fabrication is out the way.
We can now consentrate on the finishing touch's (Paint and Suede covering for the dash)
Comments welcome

Re: Turbo Cinq Post 2!!!!!
Yeah it is light weight.
All aluminium dash and mounting bar only weigh 4kg
Couldn't work for Fiat. Would want to break all the regulations

Re: Turbo Cinq Post 2!!!!!
But what happens if you pass out from excessive dribbling???
Or is that a risk you are willing to take???

Yes this is the fastest Cinq Turbo cake ever it went from my mouth to my stomach in under 3 secs!!!!!
But not all in one go!!!!!!
But on a serious note, I have got some more picture's of its big brother coming shortly.

Re: Turbo Cinq Post 2!!!!!
Have uploaded loads of pictures for you here:
https://s185.photobucket.com/albums/x96/paul54bux/Turbo%20Cinq/#!cpZZ1QQtppZZ24
Too many to upload. Would probably crash the site!!!
As for the wiring it was alot of cutting, splicing, extending and removal of unwanted wires.
So was it Hard? NO. Time Consuming? YES
If we can help just ask.

Re: Turbo Cinq Post 2!!!!!
Don't know how much the ali was as it was FREE
Went to a local fabric store. Price depends on the look you want.
We managed to do the dash conversion for a grand total of £20.
