Thanks for the comments 
Just lots of little things really nothing major although I will change the turbo and injectors at somepoint.
Got to fit these as well


Think they were near the 500 mark or just under. I have an EGT thermocouple to fit for the boost one which was a bit extra.

lights were only fitted because I was taking the car to France and the old ones were looking really cloudy.
I left them in after noticing the ACTs were quite high on the new engine. I will be getting a new (BLACK!) cooler at some point so may fit (some new?) normal lights back in then hopefully
As for the grill that was on but looking abit flimsey before I went to the essex RSOC meet and had fallen out by the time I got there

Very, very nice!!
Is this a kind of electronic controlled fuel pressure regulator or some fuel cut-off valve at the fuel rail?? Never seen such item before.
I do see an original fuel pressure regulator in the pic too.
