Just back from checking progress and the ex manifold has the special twin runner to the 40 mm external wastegate connection done and has to have the mating surfaces trued up and some minor cleaning up to the inside of the runners and it's ready to bolt up so the dump can be made
The final turbo specs are still to come but it will have a split turbine entry and there will be an oxy sensor in the dump to help the cruise mixtures
Power steer , altenator & waterpump hooked up and drive belts in place as well

Looks so good, we really should've done a group buy on intercoolers with those end tanks. :beer

silver rocker cover, black spark plug cover and red writing looks fantastic.. I imagine if a starion ever came out of the factory as a twin cam, these are the colours it would be sporting :beer

Yes and it's a PWR 600X300X75 core positioned for shortest possible pipework
Decided to use a t&f core for better airflow to the radiator over a b&p core
