Another quick update.

The one oil cooler is now relocated to the front and 5/8" pipes installed running inside the chassis. The return line going back to the dry sump tank now runs through the front oil cooler to help air cooling.

Boost boxes fitted onto throttle bodies for jigging up the boost lines. I should receive my exhaust flanges during next week, then the exhaust is done.

One "big" job still left as well... fitting the front wheel speed unit for my electronic dash. :| . I'm leaving this one for last. Still need some ideas for this one. :|

At long last I'm getting my clutch back today. So this weekend I can reinstall the engine.

Next big thing is the intercooler.

I bought them from one of the VW challenge quys, their rules changed regarding the tyres. So he cannot use them anymore.

Got the set of 4 for R2500.00
