Shame about the turbo Rich, but nice rebuild and keep the reliability of it. T34.63 on Light Blues FTW!

Fantastic that it is handling well, that's the one thing that really matters, engines and turbos etc are the easy bit to sort.
Really pleased for you mate

With 2012 coming to an end shortly thes only a few things left to do....
Firstly get voting
http://www.facebook.com/questions/438781746189747/
Secondly remove the turbo and sent it to Vince @ CR Turbos for a refurb.
Removed it today and found the exhaust housing full of oil
Roll on 2013, first Trackday is at Bedford on 16th Febuary. Planning to do Croft, Combe, Nat Day and Ford Fair.
So if you see me pop over for a chat, I don't bite

Look forward to seeing it there, just wasn't sure whether you'd be in it because of jobs needed on it.
