It's being bolted on as we speak, there was lots to do as I hadn't turned a spanner since it went pop last Tuesday but it's all fine, lots done so far, cleaning, priming and double checking so I'm a little under pressure but it's cool

No funds for a BB turbo so I've got a straight replacement.

I'll send the old unit off to CR next week and we'll see if they can rebuild it rollers, if so that can go on when we transfer everything to the track car.

You definately picked a good day for it!

According to the local forecast, we are expecting heavy rain all day, some hail, thunder & lightning, and localised flooding laugh

Leighton did what he could in the time allowed, Coupe ia suffering boost creep and won't set lower then 1.7 bar so I'll tweek the peload on the wastegate to see if that helps settle things as I prefer 1.45 for my casual driving style.

Turbo is spooling earlier with the 3.5 downpipe so all the effort and hours fabricating has paid off so far.

New turbo is working well and the engine hasn't suffered unlike Marco's frown

Thanks again Leighton for fitting me in as I know you're mega busy, also chewrs to Dan for again more coffee and taxi rides.
