Haven't been back in the workshop since.

Hoping to tuck in tomorrow night. Need to get the fuel cell installed so I can start ordering fuel lines, fittings, filters, etc.

I won't forget, but I need to get the new battery box first. Should pick it up tomorrow morning hopefully.

Basically makes 30hp more as the previous one, at the same boost level, and we can now actually get more than 1.2 bar. Well, we will, as soon as the fuel delivery problems are sorted.
Does a little present from Zubair explain the extra ponies ?

Other turbo? We're going to hit the target with this turbo, it seems. Well, Shane thinks so anyway.

We'll see when we get there.
