Here is the new wheel color of the season.  A nice lime green.  A unique look for wire wheels!

This is the MG Metro Turbo setup which will (eventually) make it onto the car.  Rare as hens teeth.

I found a nice 2.5" VW 8V stainless steel turbo downpipe with O2 bungs and flex coupling that will mate up with the Garrett T3.

A fresh crank and rebuilt block with new pistons, rings, bearings, Elgin Racing custom profiled turbo cam, race lifters, high flow turbo specific oil pump, lightened racing timing gear with double row chain, new crank sprocket, crank trigger ignition with OMEX ECU to fully map the spark, custom billet aluminum oil return adapter for the turbo, and oil cooler complete the modifications for the new motor.

A freshly rebuilt cylinder head to cap off the motor.
