Got a small update, was going to wait till i had more pictures to post, but i've just collected the top half of the inlet manifold for the welders & i've got to show you all, only cost £50! Cam cover breather hose just about clears it. S2 brakes have been stripped, cleaned inside & out, painted red & i've fitted new seals. Also started to fit the S1 arches & skirts. I've got some Audi 1.8T pistons on the way, so engine will be stripped again lol

Finished the mocked up bottom hose, was a bit of an awkward shape, just got to add the off takes for thermostat housing, heater box & turbo water drain & i'll send it off & have a silicone hose made



Clears the alternator



I used a MK6 Escort zetec top hose, which has a threaded bose for the fan switch, i had to cut it down in width, again this is just a mock, i'll get one made in silicone



Drilled & taped holes in the inlet for throttle & idle valve



Audi 1.8T forge pistons cleaned & ready to be fitted to the con rods, need to have the cons machinned to take the slightly larger pins
