    So happy that you have a MK2 on the road. It by all accounts is a beast of a car from what I can see and knowing it's history. The interior is really a great job - original and good condition. Looking forward to catching up soon to check it over.

    Thanks Mik
    Yes boost gauge wired up but not plugged in yet.
    Boost control is also on the agenda now.
    Tinkered with it a little and now seems to be under control.
    Button clutch also has to go.

    A friend of mine has an Evo 6 with a button clutch. The car is a bit rough, but it's his daily, and he says the clutch is bloody terrible.

    I drove it to work last week and what a mistake.
    It wont break but its rough as. Very hard to get a good launch in first.
    Should be out in the next few weeks.
