Update..

Been a while since last update now,but things is happening..

Pics for those who are interested

Side on side with a non-stock S2 with 400+..

New fuel tank,and the rear beam axle is almost like new with new bushings,16v disc and calipers

The transmission is "up and running" again,since I had to reassemble it because of a 2.gear who was assembled the wrong way on the pinion axle 

 

Some modifying is needed on the gearbox cover,to get clear of the 60-2 sensor..

I have upgraded to 'Coil on Top' setup,with coils from the RS4 engine.I dont remember the P/N right now.

Some slight modifications is needed on the head cover to make it fit.Trim away the lip on top and bore up the holes to about 35mm.Peeled away the rubber sealing on the coils,and grinded the lip to make it slip down on the plugs.....Easy peasy! 

 

More wiring pics...I hate this kind of work  

Finally finished with all the wiring in the car..

I also had to make a new downpipe..Mr.Knut "The polar bear" is welding


More to come

Got the wastegate welded up, and wrapped it in with exhaust band..So now im soon finished with the exhaust piping..Off course stainless all the way back

I am not adding so much text in here cause my english sucks,pics will tell

Exhaust 99% finished,need to weld up some mounts also..

I had to manufacture myself a bung for the water return from the turbo,so I chopped a AN fitting and welded it into a new frost plug.

So lets just hope its not leaking

Machined down the surface,and bored up the plug holes to make the coils fit better...

Got some work done with the intake piping last weekend.I am waiting for the silicone hoses to arrive these days,and now I need to fine adjust the pipes to finally weld them up...

CLOSING IN
