So some updates
Vnt controller come, vnt turbo come I was expecting a gt2256v what come was a gt2052v my balls up tho clearly my research wasn't great. Any how my plan was to clock it weld it to the manifold and get it down the back of the engine...... this didn't go well either...
With the engine off its mount as far forward as possible actuator was hitting the steering column joint. So immediately thrown it in the back of the shed and questioned my self why do I bother nearly 300 quid in that for no reason :
So fast forward a few days I bought dum dums gt2052s that has a t2 hotside machined to fit the 2052. I've clocked it round slightly, fitted the actuator mounted it to the manifold then fitted the exhaust elbow. It was at this point I relised that the actuator was a vacuum one so had to pull it to bits again attempt to flip the spring, did this sealed it back up fitted it and decided that the spring was to soft so took a t2 actuator to bits (and broke it) used the spring out if that much stiffer and better, all back together used a pump to apply pressure and it's not working FML! So at this point I gave up for today.
So thats were I'm at now I'm gonna try another actuator at some point then I'll attempt to get it fitted hopefully going to plumb the fmic in this time to.
Comments welcome
