I bought Faz's morettes of him so when they came i stripped them down and sprayed the fronts anthracite (spelling). Also meshed the two inners and put motorbike indicators behind them and the sidelights into the main light unit.

Also took some new snaps while i was up at the unit even though it's raining

Also got a couple pics of the engine bay, need to get the bay painted as its a right mess.

That can't be standard turbo though? The stock internals are ridiculously strong in these

Picked up a new gsi bumper at the weekend with all mounting clips intact

Got a pre 97 rear bumper from Ian at PVS, Thanks alot. Fitted the irmscher lip to it

Just need to trim the grille out the gsi bumper then they will both go in the corner intill september when the whole cars getting fresh paint.

Thank you for all the good comments

Well today i finally got the new turbo on and fitted. Just need to get a downpipe fabricated up now.
Unfortunetly it's going to need a compression test as something isn't right its dripping oil from the exhaust side of the turbo and the old turbo was full of oil too.

A quick video of it with no exhaust

Well there's no billing for me

Unkinked the oil return pipe hoping it would help but its still pissing oil out.

Really can't be arsed to fix it atm and as it was coming off the road in september when the insurance was up anyway, so im just going to punt it into the corner of the unit and find something as a cheap run around.
