Got a the new actuator on.
Got the rad fitted,

Fitted the new turbo water on, fit is utter sh*te if i have it sitting how it should the pipe sticks up and over the slam panel, is to long. Any one else's the same?

Filled it with oil to see if the sump leaked and left it over night..
Started early this morning..
Made a new water pipe bit, nice stainless. Polished it up, but wasn't happy to sanded it off again today.

Pushed the car out side for the first time in almost 2months so i could rinse the heat matrix thru, with that done i could finish piping up the water system.
Got the IC back in and all pipped back up.

Looks alot more tidy with the new silicone on, but some how i've deleted the pics of it with the air tubing off.. :(
Best i have..

All piped up and filled with water and new Blue (matches the car) antifreeze. Yes i know the water feed pipe isn't right but its worse pointing up.
Bay needs a really good clean, polished rad on show.. ;)

Fans back on with new fittings.

Took it for a test drive, everything was ok. Give it some to test out the boost as i had fitted the new actuator.. No boost.. Oh what have i done?
Get back.. The nut must have not been tighten as it had come off the end of the bar so the gate was just opening, with a nice new stainless nut on it was fine.. Oddly.
Bumper back on and top hat cover on.

Then headed off to meet Dan and Sharon who did the same to me..lol
Found i was getting a little bit too much boost.. About 15psi, so had to adjust that in a lay by by the motorway.. Always fun in a hot engine bay.
Here Dan helped me (thanks) just driving my car to the meet, i cant see what i do and don't like till the car is moving you see. So i jumped in with Sharon (thanks) and took a few pics..
