It just needed the spotted on frame in the tunnel removed. B4's don't even have the bit I removed so it can't be too structural.

A bit more work done between Xmas activities.

Wastegates mounted. Passenger side turbo is all mounted and plumbed ready to go. Drivers side is a bit trickier due to the oil filter housing.

NIce.

Did you make the exhaust manifolds from scratch?

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

Just a bit of fiddling around today. Had to make an adaptor to fit a different oil filter as the original filter was enormous and fouled on the compressor cover.

I turned up some bits in the lathe and then tigged them together to rduce the thread on one end from 30mm to 24mm.

No ETA but I don't wish to have it in my shed for longer than necessary as I have to finish my 2JZ crown off after it comes back from paint.


Did half the exhaust today. Would have got more done but had to remanufacture an alloy race sump for a mootec speedway car.

Dash is also out as I had to reroute the heater pipes and pull some unused wiring back through the firewall. Pro Ratchet is in position.
