So the turbo flanges turned up the other day which will be finished with bolt holes soon. Sadly the turbo is not going to be fitted this week now.

And the reason for not fitting the turbo is these.

2 lovely rust patches on my nearside rear arch, the pictures are after I'd prodded all the loose rust out with a screwdriver as they hadn't actually gone through before that. I had been taking bits off that side to fit my battery box which is going half in the storage cubby at the back of the boot as its nice and out the way then to keep practicality. Fortunately I now have a welder and some spare steel sheet to knock up a decent plate for this and get it repaired.
