Update:
Ended up with 210kw and 340nm.....
Actuator is not well. So I need to get a new one. So the boost is turned down for now. Untill I can sort out the actuator.
Also installing a electronic boost controller soon.
So untill then the car will run at stock boost!

Thanx for all the kind words!
Im very impressed! Pretty stock motor with a little added boost.
Sorry to say, but the CA18 isnt a patch to this! I was shacking for ten minutes after the first time I drove it!
However, a bit of bad news. The the aftermarjet cam gear came loose......Dont know the extend of the damage yet, hope the car hasnt bent valves!
Will know by Monday or Tuesday!

I hope not!
Anyway, also saw that the manifold (stock) has a small crack, nothing major, but now just to be safe I will be looking for a aftermarket manifold.
Also looking for a turbo exit piece and a downpipe (76mm) - So if anybody knows somebody with these pieces they wanna sell, let me know. Cheers.

Well, 2 valves on the head is bent, and this because of a human error when assembling!
I wish I had all the knowledge and time and do this shit myself! Anyway, will be a few weeks before the car is up and running again. Will keep you all posted.
On the bright side! I might be getting a sponsor early next year! The car will then be used for drifting and main circuit!
So if the sponsorship comes threw the whole car will be stripped to the last bolt! So another project might be up and coming!
