No wonder you're going such a massive power upgrade. Look at all the cabling and sound equipment your poor FTO has to drag around 8O :lol:

This is a seriously mean build. Can't wait to hear it with the screamer pipe installed, especially on a turbo that big 8)
I'll have an FTO one day... i swear!

until then:
1. 2001 Merc-Benz A160 (porta-loo on wheels)
2. 2007 Peugeot 307 TDi (more fun than you'd expect)
3. [url=ttp://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25373]2009 Mitsubishi Triton Di-D (a monster in its own right)[/url]
4. 1992 Nissan NX Coupe (club car and project car)
5. 1996 Holden SB Barina - "The Nugget"
6. 1996 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport - The Budget Build
7. 2010 Toyota Landcruiser 76 Series - V8 Goodness... - Build coming soon.
8. 1990 Audi 90 manual - The delightfully dignified daily driver

Nice!

Can you drive through the outskirts of the Western suburbs when you're done and suck up all the bratty kids with that turbo?

Close fit on that manifold meanwhile.
Have you gone for a blow through setup with the fans?
