There is a wee bit of play on the turbo but I put that down to not having any oil pressure on the journals all seems good tho.

Full rebuild (prob does not need it at 40k)
Carrilo H-beam rods with sps carr bolts
Supertech valves (one piece ss black nitride coated intake and inconnel exhaust)
Farndon billet Lightened flywheel
Sach race engineering clutch and pressure plate
Glacier custom tri-metal extra heavy load big end and main bearings
SS equal length manifold
Port and polished head
Custom forge intercooler with SS hard pipes (two cores to test)
Titanium collets

Turbo unsure as of yet
Maybe a fandon billet crank(only problem is its a 12-15 week wait)
Maybe Largeport if I can find one in time and convert to VVT

How much would you pay for a largeport???

 

[MK8]

Out of all those pictures, i can confidently identify only a few things:

-The valves where i guess the pistons go up and down in.
-A Spider

The rest will be educated guesses!

I envy your skills!

Looks like you're having fun

Good stuff!

If you reuse the std oil drain & gasket, don't do what I did.

Whip off plastic bag, can't find gasket anywhere.
Order gasket from dealers.
Wait 2 days.
Fit new gasket.

When job finished, pick up plastic bag and find gasket inside.
