Todays progress

Since fitting the fuel pump when nailing it out of roundabouts car has seemed to surge a little bit, so pump back out and found a little nick in one of the pipes, soon sorted that out and seems to be fine now.
Also fitted my breather hose that i bought a while back, original was split and making the rocker cover all shitty. exhaust at the end of the month and will send the turbo away the following month. Bought some oil and filter in preperation for ripping it to bits.

Bits left to buy

Turbo gasket
Coolant


and i think thats about it! injectors, FPR TIP and some new spark plugs are all boxed up together so i dont loose anything!

Looks good Lee!

Found out mine has a Custom-Code map on it, pretty much on par with an Ibiza Cupra as i found out earlier .

Going for a Milltek downpipe/cat replacement and Milltek cat-back system. Should free it up a bit more

IIRC, the quickest Stg1 Ibiza 1/4mile was done with a custom code map, 14.7! and go to custom pipes in Donny, looking at about 400quid tops for a full turbo back system
