Frosty's Ph1 Black D Turbo now with VNT

[Frosty]

Haven't updated this for a while as haven't had chance but the engine is in and running. Put the engine in from underneath which is a lot easier but helps being able to use the ramp



In on the mounts



All in ready for starting. It didn't start first of all but was no big issue just me being silly as the fuel was turned fit back which is how darren puts them after he has resealed them etc.



It seems to be running ok. I have put the original exhaust back on for the min as it was so loud with no exhaust when running it up to check all ok. Got a powerflex bottom engine mount which does seem to vibrate the car a lot but mark says give it a bit of time to bed in so that is what i will do.

I did get round to fitting the coilovers last night. Fitted with no issues and this is now they sit. About the same as the springs i think but they may well settle down a bit



And finally for now i got the intercooler pipes back on this morning so i could run it up to temp and make sure we have boost



Slight mod on the pump bracket so pipe doesn't hit it



Got all of this week off work so hopefully i will get chance to have a good crack at this car and get it nearly ready to go back on the road
