As a few of you may have seen ive been having alot of issues with a judder whilst turning left for the past week. Its set me up from day one. The more ive looked the more ive discovered was dying on the front end of the car.
The list of parts replaced so far is as follows:
Passanger driveshaft
Drivers driveshaft seal
Box oil
Ball joint
2x strut top
2x strut bearings


Considering next week the turbo fun begins its not exactly a bad thing that its all been rebuilt. Just a pain i still havnt found the source of the judder. Jacked the car up to test the diff and discovered the drivers drive shaft was running ecentrically from the support bearing to the hub. Fingers crossed this is the cause but seems ofd its felt through the passanger side.


Anyway back to business. As in previous posts ive been having issues with finding a suitable intake. Ended up resorting to a stock intake with a modified fitting for the turbo. Easiest way to marry it up to the turbo i could see was to lop the bend off and install a silicone reducer.
Anyone else doing this the size silicone you need is a 51mm<60mm. I personally recomend buying an ash hose aswell. A little more expensive but seem longer then others on the market.
Also had the chance at work to mill the exhaust flange ready for the stainless to be mad.
In a mad momment of not given a f*ck today ive started fitting the egt gauge. This is probably to most peoples disgust as it will be wired in same fashion as the rest.
