iscoStu: Collecting it a week on Tuesday and hopefully fitting it up on Wednesday
I can't wait for it and aiming to get a larger pulley very soon to get my boost up also ive bought an hks ssqv and some sfs hose to match up everything! i like the noise so i couldnt resist!
I'm thankful I have Stix and jay keeping me right up here! Not forgetting the rest of you though, yeah stav, that's you!
I've also took the plunge and became a outlaw. Think it's about time really considering the amount I use the forum and the help I get from it
Cheers

First of all on Saturday me and Stix did the 660 mile round trip to south east London. A canny trip and an early start of 4pm!! Needless to say it was a ****** long day! For you who are interested, I got 660 miles on one £80.00 tank of fuel...in my bmw 320D lol!!
So with the kit finally in my hands we decided to get it fitted the next day!
That night I decided that I wasn't into the black pipe work that the previous owner had done so I got scrubbing and polishing...

And I ended up with...

And I was really happy to find some genuine stamps that had been hidden

After this I have the rest of the kit a quick clean and put another layer of black on the intercooler as it looked tatty but I couldn't be bothered to strip the paint off! Ill buy a new Fmic eventually!
I also won an HKS SSQV on eBay and that arrived so I polished it up, it went from...

Currently just waiting on my green sfs t piece hose to arrive and then I can get this fitted
Fitting Sunday was a long day, freezing cold and rain/sleet, I've defiantly had better days working on the car! Thanks to Stix for all his help and wisdom as we hit some stumbling blocks and with out him I would have been screwed!
(He's going to do a how to on the fitting of the charger, eventually)
So it started like this:
![[Image: 69E8827D-FB13-463B-9045-B7B543650026-237...bfa9ca.jpg]](http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/Ste17691/Is200/69E8827D-FB13-463B-9045-B7B543650026-2376-0000024B14E451B0_zpsf1bfa9ca.jpg)
And finished like this:
![[Image: 967EC428-891E-4E5C-BAA4-59104934919F-237...024d9c.jpg]](http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/Ste17691/Is200/967EC428-891E-4E5C-BAA4-59104934919F-2376-0000024B3733F018_zpsd2024d9c.jpg)
So that was it in!! Happy days it works really well, no bad noises etc and after checking today all seems spot on!
Today, I gave the car a much needed wash, topped up my Coolant which was non existant!! And my power steering fluid which had fell below the minimum! :mellow:
I also took some of the plastics out of the bay and painted them up. Just to start the laborious task of tidying up around that god ugly head we have!!
![[Image: 9B65EF5F-16F3-4E89-833F-3C81182739C4-237...993be6.jpg]](http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n555/Ste17691/Is200/9B65EF5F-16F3-4E89-833F-3C81182739C4-2376-0000024B4318EB62_zps15993be6.jpg)
And one of the car as it stands at the minute...

Next things on the list are:
-ik22 spark plugs
-exedy clutch, my current one is shagged
-new discs and pads
-boost and oil gauge
-possibly a blitz Fmic
Cheers for reading!

will be worth the time when I finally get them on.Today I got the bov on and the breather filter on.
Next things on my immediate to do list are:
New clutch
New discs and pads
Bigger pulley for the charger
Also doing some mods to my exhaust and reintroducing a small silencer back into my straight through mid pipe as I've decided a full straight is great but when off the accelerator at high revs it's got a not so nice noise :/ that should be happening this week
