Too early to tell power wise yet, have to wait wont be reaching full potential yet until I have a few supporting mods in the block!! I know what you mean about changing times, I remember when the theoretical max of a dt was around 130bhp, now we have td04's gt2056's, etc!

Too right! I wont be revving the tits off it but I'm not sure if the standard rev counter will show enough revs!!!!

Nice one buddy!! I'm glad its me who got it too!! lol As said already though, it won't be getting pushed as hard as Darrens for a while as his blew a few rods before he went forged and i cant afford to keep fixing it!

Yes mate! As soon as it started I was jumping like a little girl! lol I will be even more once its finished!!
Update:
Got all the front end back on (only one pic but I'll upload it shortly)
Header tank is now mounted behind the turbo on the bulkhead
Just having problems with gear linkages now so will have to have a play tomorrow hopefully to get it sorted. (thanks Darren!!)
Still to do:
Exhaust
Gear linkages
Gauges, gauges, gauges

The gear linkage is hitting against the exhaust manifold so I can't engage 2nd 4th or reverse so some adjustments will be required (read bend the fucker out the way)
Gauges, I need 2 boost, pre and post charger. Egt. Oil temp and pressure. Ipp if I can knock something up and intake air temp.
Yea she's looking good now!

Nearly there now! Sorted the gear linkages with a hammer so I can now get all the gears. Header tank is currently cable tied to the bulkhead so need to make up a bracket tomorrow. Exhaust is getting welded up Monday then mot Tuesday/Wednesday!!
Gauges still haven't turned up yet so can't do anything on that for now just want to get the thing going!!
Anyway here is a quick vid from today showing turbo porn and supercharger epicness!!

With sensible boost, no reason it won't last long enough for me to build up another engine.

Well I drove the car down to my brother in laws today so we can weld up the temporary exhaust tomorrow and then it will be going for its mot on Thursday!
I gave it the beans on the way down there and it bloody shifts!!! It's burning all the fuel, not a wisp of smoke and a nice little chatter from the turbo on lift off which is just pornographic
A power steering hose had split and made a bit of a mess and the brakes really need to be used, the speedo and rev counter don't work but could just be an unplugged cable or 2!
So all in I'm very happy! I'll get a few pics up tomorrow once the exhaust is done

I remember my 1st drive to the mot, after I sorted the car out. I did give the car some beans on the way. Had two blokes who were waiting at the bus stop look up the road at me haha.
