Spoon_tuned Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Sunny Day Managed to get some more done today as it's bee shining all day which was a nice surprise plus my turbo kit arrived as well haven't fitted it properly just rested it for a test fit cleaned the block more painted the rocker cover temporary to see what it looked like in the bay with the kit on as the pink rocker just didn't cut it at all!!! Managed to get my FMIC fitted up i hate the intercooler but eventually i will get a decent one cleaned the intake manifold and the fuel rail slightly waiting on my fuel pressure Reg to come and the adapter plate also need to order a longer oil feed return silicone pipe and order a silicone hose for the intercooler to the turbo and one more for the intake to FMIC. Still waiting on my exhaust system from browner been over a week now hopefully be here before tuesday need to get it fitted Waiting on some gaskets from iddy and some rocker cover washers. Still a lot to do with little time just want to get it fired up and back to my house then next month get an E-manage and get it to tuning developments to get it mapped..

Spoon_tuned Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 Right tiny update as again it's been raining HEAVY!!! But we carried on managed to get the turbo kit bolted on with all gaskets after a nightmare of receiving the kit with a snapped thread we had to drill it out we also had to cut the exhaust bolts of with a dremmel been what i can only describe as an offing nightmare all round pumping money at it and finding out i need more and more parts just to get it running and it's not like i'm really going mad with modding it. I've ordered some silicone hoses for the intercooler and couple of bungs just hope they all fit and i got a rad cheap off a mate , in need of an o2 sensor for the de-cat as the other one is wrecked ordered a fuel pressure regulator already got a walbro fuel pump just gotta fit but more than all i need my new exhaust system to link everything up..
