Looking good dude 
Any spec list?
Have you lowered the comp?
What management do you use?
Turbo spec?
Have you upgraded internals? The m42 lump has forged crank, rods and pistons anyway IIRC.
Where are you based?
There are a few turbo's on the zone now, even a twin! so your in good company here!
Sorry for all the q's tho

Saw this at Bexleys a few months back, tidy car, and the turbo install looks pretty sweet too.
Still on Motronic iirc , or did Nigel talk you round ?

Cool! Always wonder why more people don't turbocharge the 16v engines, they probably stand to gain more in terms of percentage increase than us 2v people

well thanks for the positve feed back guys
ive lowerd the ratio to 8:1 with a metal headgasket that also drops the comp its got a custom manifold with a t25 garrett turbo.
lightened flywheel balanced bottom end not sure what management im running i left that in the trusty hands of BEXLEYHEATH MOTORS the guys down there are top gravy and no what they are doing they will be the big part of my stage3 build ive got coming up.
the head as had major work to it to with stand the extra heat from the turbo and the cooling system has been changed such as the thermostate fan oil temp switch.
NOT alot of fun getting all this done it took me a year getting round all the miss happs what a nightmare it was by the looks and attension it gets is un true.
ive even had an old couple at a shopping centre with walking sticks stop and ask about it lol that was so bizzare the guy was saying wish i was 30 years younger and his missus was telling him to grow up it was a classic
well thats enough from my big gob ha ha
