Small update, Car has now done 900miles and running perfect all be it a break down 2 Sundays after the standard XR3i fuel pump gave up , no biggy as I had a new MSD upgrade sat in the garage waiting to go on, as a bonus I found that the EFi fuel tank has been replaced at some point in the past few years with a brand new one

Also i've been looking for months for a turbo bonnet that’s not 100's of miles away from Cardiff and not rusty across the bottom edge and have come to the conclusion that they’re like rocking horse shit so I’ve given up, the bonnet on my car is totally rust free so after cutting up a scrap turbo bonnet I had I decided to bond the vent cut out’s into my bonnet, Also wanted a bit of extra cooling as the cross over pipe gets stupidly hot, so from the scrap bonnet I thought it’d use the air box vent, well part of it. Blowing a heat gun across the bonnet it’s surprising how much air will flow through it , hoping that this will help keep the under bonnet temps lower which can only be a good thing.
