Most images are back...
Anyway... Got the turbo... and.. well... its big...


After I started breathing again I fitted the engine. Alone its always a bit of a struggle to get the engine mounts lined up but I know the tricks by now so it was done pretty quickly.
Repainted some damaged spots in the engine bay and sprayed the bits on the engine where the paint had come off when it was flushed..
My manifold is on its way so need to get everything hooked up and ready


Realy hope the turbo fits... Will need to modify the downpipe / intake and intercooler piping but its huge!!!

All parts are in!
Shame i'm down with the flu on my days off.. but can't wait to get the thing back together!
What do you guys think of the manifold?
Downpipe needs to be welded and fabricating a altenator bracket.



Also my new axels and RTFcame in today! ABS rings are removed now and going to install them asap so my car is back on its feet..

Where'd you find that manifold... Hanging in a tree?...

Looks awesome! Is that ceramic coated? Where did you have it done?
