Cheers guys. I have been busy and while it is an excuse I have managed to get some more stuff on the car.
Added the baffle to the sump
And while there added the windage for the crank
With the sump all nice and done, it was time to wrap the exhaust mani, and down pipe
Then moved onto fitting a thinner A/C(AUX fan) and intercooler
Then it came time to chop the front valance to allow room for all this stuff and see what do to about the oil cooler
The factory oil cooler was used with banjo fittings (m22 x 1.5). Sitting just below the factory location, but not too low as to have it get damaged (I hope)

A new cooler has been ordered as this was basically a mock up.
It fits...
With some editing of the mtech front valance :(
While at it, changed the radiator out
It all a very tight fit, with air con and all and checking the clearances it is going to be fun when the turbo sits in there. Speaking of that, that would be next, including 90% of the exhaust and making a start on charge pipes.Djordje
If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!

Its all a tight fit, when I want to have AC and stuff. Ahh well it might all fit under the bonnet.
Dont have a swedge so made some something.
Some electrical work, adding coil near plug, sequential injection and all that happy fun stuff.
After some consideration we will add a cam sensor.
I will need to do something about brakes and have decided to look at the wiki. Grabbed the Chrysler front disks and renault megane 225 front calipers . Will need to make up a braket but the offset is good and it fits under a 16" wheel. Will also be trying 300mm single pot rear dics from a 120d :) The hats are almost identical to the e30 in size. Will see when we get to that.
This is currently how it stands, at 0.8 bar and a slipping clutch. Should be sored in a day or two. Will be pushing 1.2 bar hopefully might try 1.4 bar but we will see.
Found a solid set of French hedlights and fogs, well actualy a friend bought a car with them. He dosen't like them so we made a trade.
