So my new lower grill arrived - so i can now get on with fitting my Twintercooler & US size plates (offset to the passengers side on a customer bracket - so no flow restriction to intercooler) Then the mother of all turbo's to get modified & rebuilt (Told its off a 3.0 V6 Audi TDi - should make some boost!  :surprised:)

Wheels to be refurbished soon too!

Car will go well with the new turbo. Its a GTB2260 by sounds of things. Used to run one on my PD130 Ibiza. Good for around 300bhp with a decent exhaust manifold and the right supporting mods.

Full front suspension refresh in progress - top mounts, WALK, drop links, tie rods & ARB bushes. should help it go round corners better.

Also trying to get all the Jetta TDi cup goodies from the US too - Thunderbunny here we come!
