    Where are you mounting your intercooler about? just wondering with where your oil cooler is mounted.
    Couldn't think of anything good to put in here.

    well..... not ideal but the oil cooler is behind the intercooler (will still benefit though), mounted on the bottom chasis rail. Will try to get some more pics tonight.

    Would it not be better to mount the oil cooler higher up similar as to how RC has done on his? Just thinking about what room your going to have to mount he intercooler with the oil cooler and bumper still to go on?

    Well I can get both the IC and oil cooler in with bumper on, I dont really want to cut the front up like that, to keep the strength in the front of the car.

    The universal turbo was to get me on the road, as soon as I get spare cash, it will be a nice new tubular manifold and a suitable garret to match, engine was built with around 400bhp+ in mind, obviously with this turbo, I'm gonna be lucky to see 330ish!!

    very nice progress, its looking really good. just a quick question, have the screws for the inserts got a left hand thread? as mine seem to be welded in if its on a normal thread
    my dad gave me some useful advice the other day..... 'if your not in bed by 10 son, come home'
