Nice one!
If you have trouble with the oil feed leaking i got a good kit off ebay which eliminates the need for the banjo.

thanks for the link, i think the banjo will hold out for now, will keep it in mind.

so strange going from 1100 to this, clutch and power, its going to be a new learning curve. hoping to have the last few bits done tomo, maybe get an mot in the afternoon.

its been a learning curve, not sure it was the best choice for my first engine build lol. but your right! just hearing that noise and feeling that little bit of power, its been worth it..

Power???

The turbo isn't even connected yet!

It would have saved us hours if you'd gone for a mirage.

well got the car mot'd and taxed today, still feels like im going to get nicked though!

after putting some more fuel on it, its running quite well, still needs to hit the rollers to make sure all is good.

one thing i can say is, i need to learn how to drive this car. 3d gear and the boost kicks in, you end up all over the road! very happy with it *happy*

Well done mate. It's running quite well now. I'd nearly forgotten how laggy T3s are. The boost comes in aggressively, all at once!

Just don't run it in too hard eh.
