Haven't been on this for a while.. need to fix the pics .
Anyway Since last time on here engine has come out..again.. re built properly-ish this time, 81.5mm re bore, Nippon racing turbo pistons, acl standard rod bearings, acl race mains, oem headgasket, head skim, supertech valve seals and every gasket replaced with new OEM parts.
Seems to be running fine anyway with 2.5k miles on it now.
I aslo had a welder in work build me up a log manifold for the turbo, i might of given him slightly off dimensions for placement of the turbo flange.. but it should be ok, looks like this so far
And i finally got over the clearance issue by fitting a radiator from a scirocco under the slam pannel
Also i got sick of the cande powerd headlights so fitted some h1 projectors and hids, only ebay hids for now, need proper ones without the chavvy blue!
