had the turbo back and this happend when i offered it up to the manifold
but to be fair it was really easy to turn because it hadnt been through a heat cycle to it turned by hand with a bit of force.
also the centre needed turning but it was a case of just undo the bolts moving it and doing them back up
EASYYYY
spent all day working on it Friday got it all finsh and couldnt get an mot done over the weekend, NIGHTMARE
so my next day off is friday so that will be when its done
this is how it looks now
cant wait to get it out of the garage to get some decent pics and drive it of course!!
and the garage needs a proper good clean as its covered in rubbish haha

Went up just now and got it running,
Doesn't seem to be any oil leaks,
Drove it down the drive and back up and it didn't leak, all the others have started leaking well before that so that's very good!!
I don't want to risk driving it about because it has no tax or mot,
But I'm gonna book it in for Monday and hopefully it passes!!
I'll upload the vid in a bit

Booked the car in for the mot
Thought I'd get it all ready to go, got it up to temp extra,
No leaks
Drove it a bit further and sometimes it didn't want to rev,
Parked it up an let it idle and the oil started coming,
Put it up on some ramps and yep once again oil dripping from the turbo
Rang midland turbo and they are having another look at it, if it's fine I'm going to fit a scavenger pump and not have to worry about bad oil drain problems :)
