Took the car and new turbo down to Zak's today for fitting and mapping.
So, on the way down I felt the clutch slip a couple of times. Typical :roll:
It felt fine the last time it was used. That was at Barkston with eight of the usual launches.
Sod's Law
Oh, it's done very wel so mustn't complain. It's an AP organic. Fitted 3 years ago, almost to the day and done about 40K miles and, as you say a few, harder than normal launches.
Luckily, the wagon I've ben breaking had a lightened flywheel and paddle clutch in it. So guess where that's going next

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away!
Fitting proved to not be quite the 'drop in' it should have been. Being a little bigger it required cutting brackets, bending pipes and fettling of engine block and manifold to get it somewhere near.
I needed to get back for a table tennis match :roll: so left them to it.
Upside, Zak lent me a 'courtesy car' which turned out to be his track prepped classic wagon
Downside, the clutch probably won't have enough for the mapping session.
Back tomorrow to see how it all went.
