LOL well we had some fun...Time to go again:

I quote from another forum (ukmkivs...where unless you pay for something or have scene wheels you dont get replies)...

"Well today didn't go so well... We fitted the top mounts and they work LOVELY...however... We were packing up and just leaving for home when pop turbo shaft snapped. Chris has a picture somewhere of the shaft...

Oil went through everything, hydrolocked the cylinders...so possibly bent valves...also noticed some nice bits of metal in the inlet ports so probably need a rebore...However...when we took the plugs out and turned her over she spat all the oil out and turned over nice and smoothly. So fingers crossed not too much damage...

So from 3 in the afternoon till 9.30 ish we accomplished this...

The oil from the intercooler:



Me in a jolly mood thinking wahey big turbo...lol:



And how she is sat now...reminds me of a couple of months ago lol:

i don't know if it was pushing the car up the A5 (it needs MORE weight out of it :grin: ) or ripping the engine out with halfords tools but i'm fooking knackered.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Well few updates lol

Rebuilt the engine with scat rods, new rings and honed, all new seals etc etc etc etc god the list was long and expensive. The turbo is now a hybrid KO4 with a pipewerx 3 inch downpipe and decat. I need some big injectors before getting it mapped but hopeing to hit the 300+hp mark. Time will tell!

All my seats and stuff are now in...vibratechnics engine mounts...erm fidanza billet flywheel, 5 paddle unsprung clutch, custom 3 inch stainless exhaust, Sparco pro2000 seats, securon 6 point harnesses and loads loads more...

Pictures!








And a video of the sound of the exhaust...ignore my mate laughing and ignore the fact i have a plate light out...all now fixed...including his laugh lol

It was a poor launch in the video because im still running no N75 so limited to accuator boost at 10psi.
