I'm going to run an OEM style oil cooler using the heat exchanger, but the exchanger will have its own coolant circuit and small radiator. IF temps get too hot, then I'll just fit a conventional cooler
The standard EGR flange on the exhaust manifold should be ideal for fitting an external wastegate too.
I got asked about intercooling too, but there's not a lot of space. thinking of either a charge cooler OR an L200 style top mount IC.
would love to see pix ov this setup

I destroyed the engine before I got a chance... funnily enough because the oil got too hot and cooked the big end shells.
So unfortunately I've no pictures.
An external oil cooler is definitely required though, that I know for sure.
I'll be reviving this again sometime in the summer after I get my new car.
So for tonights antics:
After fettling the pump I've got the max fuel set just right, which was nearly 1/4 turn.
Only natural to see if I can reach terminal velocity so I set off flat out from my village to the next (about 3 miles) and didn't lift off the throttle once. got to about 100 on the speedo, nice orange embers emerging from the tailpipe!
I've got bigger wheels on and my speedo face wasn't printed at the right scale but it felt nearly 100 hahaha!
Going to try and get it on the dyno next week.
A moments silence please, for our brothers in the NAD-zone.
