Nearly done! After a rather demotivated start to the day I downed a couple of energy drinks, jumped in a taxi and headed over to the in-laws' house to have a proper go at fitting it.

First up, le compressor outlet.Stupid f*cking design meant it fouled either the inlet mani or the brake servo, so once again out came mr chop chop and the results were much easier to work with

Side by side, perspective seems to imply the GT isn't much bigger than the T2 but I guarantee it is after trying to squeeze it down the back of the engine Chop chop smash smash



And after a lot of swearing and fiddling about with engine mounts, the results are thus:



Almost everything's plumbed in now. Ground was soaking so didn't get round to the lower parts, so need to plumb in oil return and the two lower exhaust mani bolts. It's in though and plenty of bulkhead clearance now that massive section has been removed. And yes i'm sure it'll be safe

Last step for today was to re-route the FMIC setup so it basically flows the reverse of what it did before. Still some tweaking and a bit of persuasion of certain engine bay parts needed but it's very much nearly finished now.

Plan for tomorrow? Clamp that shit up and go for a hoon!
