Yeah, that part for sure: a set of slightly used Pauters (taken over from Jake Raby) will take their place.
Also a new cam with a little more lift and duration, lighter clutch/flywheel and the new cooling system.
Maybe a smaller turbo for track (the corner type) events.

Thats about it.

Yeah, its in my favorites album. It was a damp track that day with a few slides here and there.
Cheers for that mate!

Have cut the (new) fan housing to shorten it as my engine is still extremely short:

Wally I told you in the past that since you are a pioneer in type4 turbocharged engines you should do it professionally. Nice work by the way.

Thanks for the complement, but I like it better as a hobby. I also have more joy in the tuning of engines then building them tbh.
EFI tuning engines would be a fun job though ;-)

I have a wild idea to try out next season BTW :-)
