The turbo is a Garrett GT3540 with a 1.06 A/R turbine housing.

I have had this one for about 5yrs, had a uk one before for about 2years.
The car was totally standard when I brought it, it now has:
Rpm turbo kit, no cats, 1200cc secondarys, fitting 850 primarys soon, 044 bosch pump (may have to add another one),sx fuel reg,cusco catch tank (more for show!), Pfc and boost kit, datalogic and my own wideband.
It still has the original engine in, I have a engine I am going to rebuild and port, to drop in, in the winter.
I have just got some old end and intermediate plates to practise
on, and make templates from.

Fantastic car mate. Engine bay is probably the best I think I've seen. Who did all the work ?
We usually meet at 8pm

looks like an engine brace to stop it from moving ?

Nice car by the way

The rest of the strut brace was away being sprayed, the brace you see I made up as I didn't want solid engine mounts along with solid diff mounts.
Also I do not like where the normal engine braces connect to the upper intake manifold.
Thanks for the compliments on the car
