OMG, I just finished my oil change and I could see the front turbo properly while I was under there, I almost missed it it's so small :speechles

I had been told my TD-04 on the SAAB was considered small but I honestly had to look twice at it to ensure I was looking at the right thing. I did notice I have the standard BOV valve though so I think I may change that ASAP and I also find a very minor leak from the ATF pipe where there's a short rubberised bit as it meets the radiator/ATF cooler.

The only other thing of note that I must sort was the complete lack of underbody sealing! Lets see how much the Germans ask for it to be done.

Cute and cuddly aren't they........ I saw some off the car next to one off a scoob IIRC at Nick's house.......... I could fit both of them in the turbo on my old Supra.:thinking: :scholar:

They're just ridiculously small. They belong on a motorbike!

Heh - yeah, that's right. I'll try and get some photos at the weekend.
