We are still working on the cars but very slowly.
This summer we got side tracked with project car 3, fixed the drivetrain and mounted it.
And we got yet another Peugeot 505 for free. It's an old turbo diesel, we needed some spare parts for the project car 3 and most of my vacation was to disassemble the car to save what could be saved.
My father have finished the interior of project car 3, only modification we have done there is other seats from an Ford.
Have also updated the gallery with more pictures and updated dead links in this thread.

Couple of month ago I purchased a turbo, the turbo is an Garrett GT2860RS.
Also order all the necessary gaskets and an V-band adapter for the exhaust housing. The down-pipe will be 3'' but we must redo the rest of the exhaust system, an lower car with a full 3'' exhaust system is not practical.
What do you guys use for boost controllers?
I have been looking at an electronic boost controller, the GFB 3004.
It seams to have good feature like over-boost warning/cut (since we are bypassing the 505 own over-boost protection).

Forgot to mention that I have also purchase and WBO2 sensor (Innovate INN-3796).
The right way is to go with an stand alone ECU to get full control, but since we are slowly professing with this build,maybe it will be in the next iteration of this build.
But have reading about stand alone ECU system, try to learn more about them and what they can do.
Found an Swedish company that makes three different ECU, have looked at there entry level ECU called MaxxECU street.
