Default Update on car

Well turbo is on and so is wastegate,took me 2 fooking days to do What a complete ARSE of a job still no done as i got to make a bracket so i can put the damper on,plus got oil feed adapter issues Good news noted was the original 2wd heat shield still fits and the strut brace clears the wastgegate ...also took the rather flimsy looking Pace intercooler out and put the thicker Radtec one in

...Met Peteh yesterday and collected the swedish plenum and hoses

So lots to do yet before running...but hey its all good fun...couple of pics of the 600bhp monster being born

Yes it Ryan ...you have to get the turbo in the right position to get it to fit...the exhaust has to be loosened at the down pipe to get the twist on it...then making sure it aint touching the floor...The screamer pipe is gonna be straight forward though i think..it will just go straight down...i aint fucking about with shaping..LOL.

Must admit though the Reyland kit is certainly good

Wasn't it you waffling on about turbulence under the car from screamer pipes?
