    well small update although pics arnt the best but you get the idea! firstly turbo elbow/japspeed fitted and a bit more welding done







    and the preperation for my battery relocation.. i started of by using a good quality jump lead cable which i wrapped in super high quality sleeve which my dad got from his work.. its used too insulate aeroplane wiring so im sure it will do the job on my sx.. its super thick and fire and flame retardant so should be perfect!





    i then got a bmw jump bracket from a scrappy which i will connect the standard posi too, and from that too the boot!


    just gonna fix the battery holder down and voila! although on the bad side of things i think my turbos on its way out... time for a t28 me thinks!
