Slow progress on this, mainly because not much just 'bolts on now' all needs adaptions to fit.
Need to sort some sort of boost piping and air filter setup, so made the decision to move the battery to the boot to help with space.
Fitted some HDi brake calipers (cheers frosty) and had some new discs so added some new pads for that.
Also cleaned the threads on the caliper mounting points. (Its the silly little things)
Acquired a GTi speedo cluster some I'm hoping to make the tacho work by pulling an output from the ECU.
Did make up a downpipe of what 2.5" I already had least it doesn't fill the bay with smoke when it starts now.
Small video of it running, starts like a HDi should and idles well. Its a bit 'bluey' on faster tickover but probably wants a run as its all been apart.
