When the rain farks off I'll go back out and bolt it all up.

Fark no it's not fun. I got it sorted now. 

 

I had to fark around with the oil drain as well. 

 

Now I'm heading out there to put the turbo in. 

Same, mines got a tiny leak still which ill fixed up when I drop the oil out for a service. 

Just need a better seal at the sump but very miner leak, bout 50ml over a month

Nope next farkaround was lining up the oil drain and then tapping a new thread into the sump.

 

All done! Now for intercooler piping, coolant lines, oil feed and finding a brass or plastic t piece.

You just reminded me, I need to find that device - I think Stever uses one - that replaces your sump bolt which makes it slightly less messy to change your oil, it looks similar to a water cooler tap arrangement iirc.

 

I was going to get one all ready for the next oil change.

Don't like you, climb under car and turn tap. 

Or hit something and it gets snapped off. 

 

I prefer Wiggums setup. Sump pump ftw!

Lol one last fark around; I had to clock the chra about 2mm cos the banjo bolt for the coolant wouldn't go in. 

 

It's all together now though. 

 

I didn't touch the tune and after it had idled for a while I went for a drive.

 

It makes 5psi at 1750rpm in 6th and pulls a decent bit harder. 

 

I've had enough car sh*t for today so it's dinner, beer, rum and vodka time :bbq:

big fan of dinner / beer /vodka

Not so much the rum swap it for bourbon.

I don't think I have ever seen a build thread for your car puff.

Give us a quick run down mate.
