so its about time this got a little update again as a few things have been going on. the engine is pretty much built up now minus the pump and the exhaust mani. the pump has still got to be built at a later date when i get the time to. another job on the endless list ATM is the wiring harness needs thining down. far to much wiring for my likeing so thats got to be done as well. The cam belt you see lying down in the pic is the one that came on it. havnt put the new one on for the reason i will probably damage it. this ones just for mocking up stuff at this time.

ive got my new turbo that im stripping off a car at work ATM. a GT1749v. this will be controlled by a boost can at this time. i may go down electronic control in the futre but not yet. got to say a big thanks to piggy for explaining VNTs to me the other night and how to set them up. i also owe dum-dum a thanks as well for helping also. 

ive bought a boost gauge and EGT gauge off Londondan along with the centre console pod so i can fit the three gauges i want in there. im looking at a few EPG at the mo. think im gonna buy this one. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/110577507262?_...EBIDX%3AIT

On the list of never ending parts is also a front mount and some slim line fans to go with it. still got to make some plates and relocation stuff. Apart from the major stress out i had the other night over the time this is taken. everythings going well. Took a step back for a couple of days and then got the itch to get on with it again.
