Sounds like you'll have a nice reliable but powerful drive with all that you've added recently. What are you hoping the BB turbo will achieve once its all plumbed in? I would hope that you'd be able to enjoy the torque more with the Diff.

Going to any shows this year Richard or will you be more track focused this year?

360ish+? maybe :shrug:

I'll be at VW Action at the end of August, I wanted to go to GTI International but my mates stag do is the same weekend.

Really enjoying driving the car at the minute so it should only get better.

Is the car still on Revo stage 2 at the moment mate?

Looking forward to seeing the end result with your build.

So, I'm nearly there now, received two parcels this week for the car. The first one to arrive was the turbo back from Badger 5 where the hotside has been machined:

and the other one was the exhaust manifold:



Saying that I was too hungover to do anything manual labour orientated today I've had a look at the WMI kit and the instructions and I think I've pretty much got my head around it :confused:

Tomorrows job, weather permitting is to run the wiring for the battery relocation.

Will do mate, although having looked at it again I'm not sure I do know what I'm doing. Plenty of research needed!

Its very straightforward when you get into it. I spent ages looking at the instructions and struggled to get my head around it, as soon as I actually started it, it all became clear

I put my tank here


Pump here



Nozzle here originally, but is about to be moved into my map pipe


And I put my pressure switch inside the black wiring channel in the bay. Ran the wiring down the drivers side of the car, and the water tube down the passenger side
