Congratulations Stots (I mean, for the baby, I think I already congratulated you for the car ). And same to Mrs Stots of course !

[K4KEV]

Many congrats Andrew.....seems like your good at making baby's too

[SeriesLandy]

Congratulations. 2 baby's in one year is good going.

My first is due at the end of the month, good luck with sleep!

[Stot]

Thank you lads. Its a definite change of pace to life. Good luck with yours Landy.

In a weird twist of fate as my wife and I work together I usually take her to work with me, as shes on maternity for a number of months I get the opportunity to take the car out much more often.

Cheers
Stot

Congrats mate, mine was born 8 months ago tomorrow, which is why I haven't been about much.

Good job you've finished your car, as you wouldn't have much time to spend on it!

[Stot]

Going to make up some stone guards for my rear wings so I made up some paper templates to test for size.



Cheers

About ready to turbo this thing. I found a brand new old stock genuine garrett SAAB 900 turbo the same as my testfit one for under £200 so cant really go wrong there.

I cut the flange off the old SAAB downpipe elbow and ill weld up a 2.25" elbow to it to mate up to the existing exhaust. Should be plenty big enough for the turbo according to the corky bell book the downpipe should be 10% bigger than the outlet of the turbo, which is 2".



Just waiting on oil feed and drain lines to turn up from HK and Ill have everything I need to get somewhere between 170hp and 200hp.

Cheers
Stot
