    I managed to get hold of a second hand one recently but want to ask a few questions regarding it.

    Basically, at the end where it bolts to the turbo, it is slightly slanted, as seen here -

    Does this mean the downpipe will slant off to the left to join the rest of the exhaust system ?

    Any pictures would be great :thumbup:

    My ko3 seems to be off an Ibiza 1.8T. Does this matter at all ?

    Sorry if the question is obvious but i just cant picture in my head how it will look once fitted.

    Cheers. Rich :thumbup:

    Not bad cheers.

    Just need to buy the FMIC, piping and fans yet but its coming along nicely.

    Ive literally replaced every bolt, seal and gasket on the engine itself. Alot of trips to the local dealers. New belts, thermostat and water pump on there too. Just need a new coolant sensor to finish it off.

    Should have my loom back very soon from R.J, then i can start stripping the 8v out and get it in there :thumbup:

    Will miss the old 8v as its a great engine. I'll keep onto it though! :)

    Get it heat wrapped before putting it on, only need to go to where it pops out and goes under the car,
