Rio you know it's all over when you come and listen to mine later!

No bragging but my box was in good shape with everything in. They put the blanking bolts in finger tight so if you get stuck wazzer I will post you one  :smiley:

Cheers for the offer mate but Ste has kindly sorted me out

Fedex must be having a bad day, although there were definitely no lambda blanks. Ironic really as I wouldn't need them one if I had an ARZ/AUM/AUQ lol

Like I said bolts weren't really a problem as I found some bolts, spring washers and lock nuts at work (not nylocs as they don't like the heat). Turbo to downpipe gasket has been ordered as well as some new nuts and will be here Tuesday and I'm off down Halfords later to see if they have any high temp liquid gasket

Cheers for the help so far, Prawny let me know what happens with yours

Right then lads I just need one more bit of help if poss...

Can someone get me a pic of the back box where the tailpipe fits on in relation to the outside?

I just want to see roughly how long my tailpipe needs to be :wink:
