      • Got the bottom end built up today, well most of it. Still got to put the sump on after going thro the big ends once again. Pistons are in and bolted up to the crank, oil pump etc etc etc. Mountings are bolted on and oil filter housing.

                • You will have to polish the rest of the car now to look as clean as the engine bay will! Are you having a major cleanup in there before you put the nice shiney lump back in?
                  Was a '93 3B, Dont ask now tho......

                    • Too true Greg, I aint cleaning nuffin The residual oil from various oil leaks etc will help to keep the rust at bay. LOL

                      No i did give it a quick wash off, but nothing too 'involved'. Cant be bothered.

                          • Good work young un. How much smoke are you aiming for this time? Last I saw your car it was killing rainforests on the other side of the world with the smog it chucked out

                            Turbo looks nice n bling - what sort of characteristics will it have? I know you weren't impressed by the k26/27 that much - I'm not either to be honest. Even though it's putting out 2 bar it's sort of 'so what?' performance - not really kicking me in the back or anything, which is disappointing - wish I'd gone for an RS2 job now. Oh well.

                            What you doing about gearbox or does 'hoping it won't break again and have my fingers crossed' just about cover it?

                            In case I didn't say it before, good work.

                            Very slow.

                            Needs a chip.

                            • After driving Dougs I am expecting a lot of lag, but that doesnt matter. The 26/27 did produce good results for me tho even at 1.8 bar. But this should be more effiecnt i hope meaning more top end with a bit of luck
