      Parts from Stoke audi have arrived, now all set to get to Tonks the following Saturday to correct the leaks!

      I also bought a new plastic cambelt cover... which i then covered with some leftover lavamat. That will match the turbo heatshields i have done and wont require a kevlar part.

      I think it turned out quite nice!

          yes, lavamat is not cheap, and when handled you need to wear plastic gloves as sometimes little tiny fibres can get in the skin and pinch,(they go away after a handwash), but once its done, its fine, and if you dont have to fiddle with it all the time, it looks nice as well!

          i may cover the radiator shroud as well once i get another sheet delivered. That way, i may not get a kevlar part for that, and just use the lavamat to match everything in the engine.

                  I am getting 34.79mpg on the new engine and that is mixed cycles of city and motorway driving, but mostly city. Remarkable what a new engine with good compression can do! Me likey!

                      Haha, even thought that myself, but in the last measurement I had quite a few runs getting the boost to 1.4 bar!

                        what are you feeling then with a perfect engine compression? much better response without boost?

                              That is very respectable considering the power output of the engine.

                              I am averaging 22mpg at the moment
