some tips for you add another hole in the rocker cover and run both breathers to a catch can .have you fitted a eletric fuel pump i was able to fit one between the tank and the rear seat .get rid of the pastic radiator fan and get a thermo ..........
now heres the tricky bit .
find a decent 120 y heater core ,no leeks .
mount on the front of car were it can catch some cool air.
now run heater hose from the outlet on the back of the head to the heater core mounted in the front ,the other hose runs from the heater core to the block ........
this will help relieve the heat around the rear of the block .........
also im still spewing i sold it
oh yeah a msd blaster 2 coil will bring it alive and add some puch .
octane boost realy helps to
have fun

thanks for the tips 120fly, i will definatly consider all of then. also 120fly what did u do with the near side brake line running so close to the turbo in the engine bay? did u have an issues with it? or did u just leave it as is?

thanks every one for the positive comments, so far only driven it around the back yard and up my drive way but seems to come on boost very well, but i will have to wait till its all regod to see how well it does go

I didnt actually do it .but heres what needs to be done .>
unbolt the lh brake line from the T block and the brake line holder on the strut....
where the oil line bends behind the strut tower drill a hole that the oil line will fit through you will need to have the line bolted up to use as a guide for the hole .
you shold now beable to run the brake line on the inner you may also have to brace the line a bit .I would also put some stickon heat shield on area near the turbo this should all help.
but yeah after driving it hard for a while you will find the lh brake dies serverly .i found this out after a few laps of qld raceway
