good luck can be a bitch sometimes changing turbos, you changing the whole unit?

[AndysR]

It's certainly cleaned up nicely are they the original vac lines, look like it, might be worth changing them if they are while you've got the turbo off as the pipe to the compressor housing is a git to get off and on when the turbo is in situ..

Be interesting to hear what you think the car is like, and of course which of the two red estates will emerge victoriously afterwards.

[bigrotch]

T5 yep Changan whole unit as the housing is spot on nocracks etc
Andy I've got all new vac lines on me car now so will just swap the over and as for who's got the faster red one.... Err it's not about the performance......... YEH RIGHTY OH WATCH THIS SPACE PMSL

Good stuff, will wait to hear how it goes, although I might not be online until Monday so will make good reading at lunchtime

Fingers crossed it's not "Since I fitted the turbo I've got a ticking noise from the engine" as I think we've had enough of those posts recently

Lol, then you can get your R front bumper painted and fitted

[bigrotch]

Defo bin quoted 140/160 depending on condition of bumper and fitting not shore if that's good or not

It's easy to fit, although you will probably need some of the rivet fixings at the sides as they don't come out in one piece very nicely
