Re-assembly    

  

Assembly was quite difficult, there are 5 studs per exhaust downpipe to turbine outlet instead 

of just 3 for std turbos, some of these were very difficult to access. The rear turbo actuator rod 

is extremely difficult to get to. I will have problems if I need to adjust these ;-)

I'd already preset the actuators on the bench 

Also the same actuator rod is within 3mm of the oil drain, the oil drain in turn within 3mm of the front turbo 

downpipe. I've secured some exhaust wrap on the drain to protect it.

 

So, can you spot anything missing in the picture below, ie something very small that I should have fitted 

before I installed the down pipes ?  :-)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still need to install some heat protection for the rear turbo waste gate actuator as this sits just above 

the front exhaust turbine housing.

Before fitting the front exhaust manifold to head, I installed a adaptor to take a thermocouple probe, 

I want to monitor the exhaust gas temperature, this will help decide if the fueling is right, high gas 

temperatures would indicate mixture is too lean. Just need to make a securing bracket and attach to one 

of the thermostat housing, a wire up to a display unit Will Reeve is making me :-)

Also I had to run another wire from the aldl socket into the glove box which will connect into my pda, 

Malcolm Robb has written and developed software which runs on a pda device which will datalog

and much more !!
