thats how it started


inside the turbo looks like any other


after a right arse ache removing the bolts in the manifold i then discovered 7 of the 16 nuts where missing and what else ya notice,,,,,,,,




most of the studs have snapped but lucky no in the head , wonder how this happened ?????





well the turbo damper looks fooked , bit of wear and tear there


bit dirty in there, think i need to take all that burn crap out somehow


the manifold is off but my heay wrap for the zorst is fooked , ah well, another thing to buy on the list, only got it as this happened
