after a worrying 24 hours if the actual Turbo kit was gonna fit I'm happy to say its all systems go!!
the Turbo fits with no clearance issues as does the External waste gate (these were the bits we were worried about)
The downpipe was bulky with some bad welding that caused even more bulk meaning it was hitting my rear engine mount
DEVASTATION
Ben took it away hacked it up and arrived today with a mock up and it bloody fits with space to play with... proving he is still the best Enginner in Leeds as he likes to state
TBH i was over the moon so who am i to argue
Turbo manifold, and Turbo mounted on head
with External waste gate fitted
Downpipe mock up
(will need the Exhaust section for External waste gate tidying up, shortening etc and then welding on the final edition
will add a straight piece and have a flange made up thats the same as my current join and this will bolt right up to the existing half of my current downpipe RESULT!!!!
Uprared conrods intalled
OLD ones removed
NEW Integrated Engineering ones in place using ARP bolts
Car as it stands tonight, Build it back up tomorrow night
