Turbo up and running

After about 5 months of slow going finally have my 998 to Metro turbo engine swap completed in my 75 Austin Mini. Havent really opened it up much yet until I get to the dyno for a tune, but must say that it is quite a difference . The 998 dyno'd at 37hp and 43 ft-lb. Hope to get somewhere in the 115-125 range with this setup. Can't wait to be able to really open it up!

Sorry no pics yet. Was going to get it dyno tuned last Friday but blew front wheel bearings on the way there. hopefully back up and going next week. Once I get the tune done I post picks and the dyno graph.
