Always a bit scary seeing just how much crap is deposited on the valves. Might look into this if and when I go hybrid or k04.

Cheers mate, definitely worth doing. Especially since you can do RFD/ carbon clean and uprated FPRV all at once and save some labour charges.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Still a long way off for me though, got a few jobs to sort before I swap turbos.
I imagine the hybrid off the old engine is already sold...?

So before the car went to Alex my gearbox was sticking around reverse/ 1st/ 2nd gear and never really worked right since it was fitted 5k ago. Well we found out why, here's a video of the play in the box
Also the clutch wasn't fitted 100% correctly :doh:
Although it still seems in good nic but obviously isn't great.
This is pretty great though
Bulk of the new engine fitted :jumpmove: :jumpmove:
Vibratechnics mounts :drool:, I will now have all 4 of them.
Still plenty of stuff to do but she's getting there. :smiley: :smiley:

Great news Dan! Keep the updates coming! :drinking:
