Rick 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Fitted the new turbo today,the hardest part was putting the oil return back on it was such a pain in the !Removed!.I sparyed every bolt with wd40 to lol. The exhaust brackets have been there that long they had snapped off.After fitting the turbo I decided on buying the decat up pipe to turbo so ive ordered that now as well.The rubbish part of my day was going to fit the middle decat pipe and the donut ring falling into 100 pieces.Should be back on the road this week with the whole system decatted and new turbo just need map after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You`ll also find that mostly they are quite easy to work on, with the layout of the engine very well thought out. Although I still have no idea how to change the plugs. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
