In short, not as well as yours..... although I'm hoping for less GVM issues!

The main thing I need to do is build the heater/AC. The rest is small things that I'm sure will move much faster once the heater/AC is done. I have just puchased the heater core and evaporator, some foam sheets and various other bits to make the housing. I'm currently designing the housing in my head. So it's slowly progressing.... ever so slowly....

A/c, I am yet to start that. Just need to mount the compressor and plumb it up. But better get that sorted before xmas

I don't know much about turbos, but I do know the hole on the left is for wheel balancing.

That's the way to make your turbo spool 50% sooner. Block off half of the turbine blades.

It went viral maybe 5 years ago. I still suspect it was a hoax.

Yeah, it would destroy itself instantly when used. I wonder how many suckers fell for it and wrecked their turbos...
