Darkside Developments in the UK. So if things go well I will end up distributing some of their kits over here in Aus if they are happy with that as well as doing the tuning.Quote:

what are you going to do for the turbo intake pipe? Custom? Or a PD150 cast aliminium one?
I have to run a 36mm Inlet restrictor so will have to make something custom up.
This mornings effort.

Huge discovery is that it looks like the late model PD100s use the same inlet manifold as the PD150. go figure. PD150 on left PD100 on the right. My inlet manifold was pretty clean as well atleast compared to a few others.

Little split in the radiator hose thanks to VW's crappy design, the radiator hoses for the EGR rub.

Turbo Manifold.
Nice work, good to see you in there and messing with the lil beast!
oh nice! I might have to measure mine up, although mine is an early TDI.... Keep up the good work!
Yeah my understanding was that all the PD100's had a dual port manifold with the butterflies but clearly not all of them.
Okay the waiting game for parts has started (will post photos a little later on).
Today's (well yesterday now) progress saw the turbo unbolted, short shifter fitted, engine bay detailed, front of the car detailed.
Went to do the 312mm Brake Upgrade, figuring I would need the hubs off a Polo GTI or similar. Confirmed that I do, so basically if anyone has a set of Polo GTI Hubs or quite possibly Mk4 288mm Disc Hubs I will be happy to take them :D
