iv a clutch and turbo to fit by next friday for a map and ecu fitting.
i had a mechanic ready to do it this week, now hes too busy to do it.
and all the other mechanics are also busy.
so im kinda fcukrd.

will i chance it myself, i have a pit handy.

clutch= i (helped kinda) doing this twice but i dont no what to do with the pivit under the intercooler and no idea to actully fit the clutch kit and the gearbox over it.

turbo= do i just take off all the hoses and bolts and the td05 20g fit straight on with no mods.

I can help on the turbo, I did it on my drive, with the front on ramps, to get at all the heatshield bolts and drop the downpipe) stood on three breeze blocks to reach over the wing, 27th December from about 8:30 to 3:30 including sensible tea and lunch breaks, no real problem. left the heatshield off when I'd finished to check for leaks (the heatshield is a PITA) take the intercooler off, has to come off anyway, so may as well come off first to give some space! I had to swap coolant pipes as the ones on the turbo were slightly different, no problem though!

Mine was a direct swap, not sure if all the hose sizes for the 20G match the stock parts or not!
