205 HDi :)

[Uberderv]

With the bottom end pretty much sorted -


It was time to do a little bit of work on the head/manifolds. I bought new gaskets and marked out how much material could be removed to make a smooth connection between the head/manifolds.

Cylinder head intake-



Inlet manifold-



Cylinder head exhaust had the same gasket matching-



You can see that the exhaust manifold is quite restrictive and full of crap so I gave that a tickle too-





Next up was to find a way to connect the boost pipes to the inlet, normally the 110hp pipe is used but on a 205 it would stick up too far and stop the bonnet from closing. Options are cut a hole in the bonnet... or this -



No EGR gubbins to worry about on this
