Just saw a load of bits in the classified thread and thought you must have been breaking the car!
I assume it will be stripped out as the door cards etc. are up for sale?
This is a integrated engineering turbo support bracket I got when I got my rods.

Any ideas how / where this fits??? Lol.
From IE web page:
OVERVIEW
A support bracket for the turbocharger is built because the manifold is placed a good distance from the engine. During heavy use the turbo will be very hot and yield stress on the steel which can begin to sag under the weight of the turbo. Using a bracket is a desirable solution to greatly reduce the bending loads on the manifold and thus the stresses which can prevent cracks developing in the manifold during normal use. Precision laser cut from stainless steel and attaches to the compressor housing. For use with Garrett T3, GT and KKK turbos.
And time for another delay.
Got a call from Erimus (the machine shop) at 9 this morning say he had been ill this week and just come back in. Therefore my block won't be ready until Monday.
Gutted !!
Good progress mate! Im working on mine this evening, just got to swap the gearbox, dmf, clutch etc over from old engine.
Your story with the engineering company sounds like something off 'Lizard Lick Towing'
Glad its in safe hands now though.
Good look with it Adam.
Tell more on this 'Lizard Lick Towing' never heard of it.
