interesting build you've got going bud, will have to keep an eye on it :) .

is that one of the ebay turbo kits from the states? if so how much did you get stung on import tax if you dont mind me asking and what do you think of it at first glance? got a few things i want to bring over but not sure what the damage will be.

It came on 2 boxes and around £100 as it had the wrong amount ot was worth written down... ;) . Quality actually all looks pretty good! I know im going to run out of bends pretty quickly but then im not using the joiners as such because welding them into one piece long pipes.

Bracket to support the turbo.

Got the bumper back on tonight after some tweeks, and alot of paint coming off with the plate but was going to repaint the centre of it anyway as removing some holes that are in it!

Other than welding some bolts into the floor pan and securing the battery cables up, fitting the second rad fan and bolting the drivers seat in instead of having it just rest in place as it made moving the car around abit fun sometimes!

Nellerz also made a quick vid for me, am I'm if lucky he will upload it for me unless I do it in the mean time... ;)
