Car is now FMIC'd
#1
So, I managed to get all that done, along with new p bushes, gearbox o ring, decat and turbo boost all in 15 hours.

But I have a slight boost leak around the L bend, and it screams when the turbo kicks in, I kinda like the noise.

Does anyone have any tips for sealing it? It's already had a new gasket. Somehow I don't think copper grease will last!

Did you put in two new gaskets? there's the paper one and the metal o ring thing, mine was making quite the noise when I fmic'd just made up a gasket out of a cereal box and that's mostly fixed it

Yeah I replaced both gaskets! We're gonna fix it when we up the boost and upload the stage 2 map. I'll enjoy turning heads whilst driving around Barnstaple for now haha.

And here's some photos, I completely forgot to take some with the bumper off, it got to 1am and I just wanted to sleep!

   
   
   
   

Edit: turbo boost hasn't been done, still do be done.

Looking good mate. Was the intercooler a good fit?

Yeah, had to cut a bit off the number, other than that it was sweet!
