Yep
Got it running properly tonight, turned out to be another air leak
I made an adapter in work yesterday to rig up my compressor to the inlet pipework, stuck 30psi up it and sprayed leak spray round all the joints, turned out to be the throttle body to manifold joint leaking pretty badly even though its a brand new gasket.
Took it off, smeared it with loctite flange sealant, let it cure for 24 hours and jobs a good'un
Idle is still a touch high, about 1500 but I will let tony deal with that, but it revs and returns cleanly
Just got to fit a lambda boss in the downpipe as I forgot and ring tony to organise a full map.
Took it round the block earlier, gave it a little squirt in 1st and 2nd, by fuck its quick
Already feels loads stronger than the old T3, fair bit laggier but that's to be expected, it took off about 4k so that's probably about right, didn't have time to watch the boost gauge tbh as I was holding of for my life
