A plan has been hatched.
New engine is being built as I type.
Going to be a busy week lol
Remove current engine which is still fine and put to one side, fit new engine, turbo etc, run in, map and race at scoobyshootout

imho for road use anything more than 500bhp size turbo is going to be too laggy on a 2litre.
Had a spare hour tonight before it got dark so started swirl pot and bosch 044 install.

Left back seat out to aid load space.
Setting off to drive mike latimers to collect the engine (hope it fits in the boot).
Simon
Note to self - an old van and a trailer would be handy.
