Default Cossie 4x4 Turbo fitted to an Rs turbo step by step

I have fitted a Cossie 4X4 T3 to a Rs Turbo, however i wondered if a step by step would be useful for anyone? its all in bits again so is easy enuff to do with piccies etc so would anyone be interested in this at all?

No i mean fitting a cossie T3 to an ERST, as its not the easiest job in the world to be honest imo, even with a specially made adapter to mate to the manifold

Ive dont it - not the easiest job lol. U have to rotate both housings on the core so that all the oil/water feeds line up, and then modify the bracket so the actuator lines up. My exhaust is modded to bolt straight onto the exhasut housing.
