It shall be a few weeks before the hammer goes down to see how she handles, but my guess would be Ferrari have nothing on these rigs.

Thank you sir, she is a beauty, Im sure it will take a number of laps to get used to this compared to my old plug and play unit.
Be sure none of the juices flowing from this rig will end up in the tank of the daily hack :obscene-drinkingchug:

UPDATE: Yea I know its taken some time but with xmass, local plumbing places telling me the adapters I need dont exist and leaking fittings Im finally ready to do the first (cleaning/learning) run.
So Ive got my Bunnings 350W pump in the spa (1300lts) plugged it all in today to test everything and its all good.
So the plan is, cleaning run on Friday arvo followed by a NG run.
Happy days :happy-partydance: :happy-partydance:
I have to say that the pictures everybody post of rigs just dont do them justice, the build quality is so much better than anybody could imagine.
Thanks to Mr and Mrs Mac for such great products.
Big thanks to Mac for putting up with my stupid questions while Ive been getting this together.
