So I've got the BOV temporarily fitted. I say temporary because i bought a 50mm t piece which means my boost piping is just full of silicone joins which I'm not happy with. Ive ordered a new pipe running from the IC to the inlet and will be having the proper boss welded on ASAP so i can get rid of a load of silicone joins 
Anyway, been for a brief drive with the BOV on and what a difference. The car is much more drivable, much smoother and is almost like driving a NA car and you still got a cheeky bit of noise when letting off the throttle. Its a lot of money for a Tial but i highly recommend them!!
Anyway, still have braking issues
At the weekend i did some measuring and it turns out my bells are warped. Not by a huge amount but still enough to give me a nasty wobble.

Ive spoken to a local engineering firm who are happy to take the whole lot to measure and skim where needs be so I'm really hoping ill get this done before Saturday. If not then ill be doing the hill run in a Passat
