Hey all, i've decided to start my low boost turbo project this weekend,ive been collecting parts now for a little while waiting for some better weather to kick in!.
Anyway I'm new to turbos so alot of this is going to be a learning experience for me
(just realised have not got a pic of the Puma to go with my intro - not a good start!)
Anyway i spent all morning removing the exhaust manifold, Cat and heat shield etc etc! tight fiddly job!!
Pic of my exhaust manifold
manifold + Turbo
As you can imagine i was very keen to see if the turbo and manifold fit behind the engine and i am very happy to confirm they do - oh yea my earth strap from the engine broke lol
Pic from below, you can see i need to rotate the turbo now which i have never done before so i need to learn this next
exhaust also needs trimming down
So thats it for today, just place holder stuff to make sure the turbo + manifold fit really
