So, a small update. Some good and bad news.
I dropped the charger off to my local engineering firm to have the pulley changed and they didn't do it. Not only did they not do it but they f*cked it up in the process of trying then had the cheek to ask me to pay them for attempting! So, plan now is to take the snout from my old charger and fit it to the new one then get the pulley changed at a later date.
More goodies have been turning up throughout the week so today, me and Grant (massive thanks to this faggot. Has been a hero helping out through many a dark cold night
) got some of them fitted. Got a new aux pulley fitted as i bought 2 rallye set ups. First was of an unknown condition so not fussed about that but the second i was told was absolutely fine and in fact, it rattles its tits off and makes the belt slap so I'm pissed off that I've been ripped off.
Also got all the boost piping fitted and my oil catch tank so now all thats left is to fit the 440cc injectors, load the charged base map, start it and make sure it works ok and fill it with fuel ready to be picked up on Friday for mapping

And one to show the lack of clearance under the bonnet. Thankfully the charger plate is being remade in a few weeks time so won't hit the bonnet.
Update friday hopefully with a dyno graph and some epic videos. Either that or a picture of GTi rods all over a dyno
