Just finish the fuel rail end for adding fuel regulator.
Replace the seal on a steering pump and polish a bit the shaft on the seal end.
Port a bit more the 197 inlet for adding 65mm tb. Not a must , but I have a brand new 65mm tb
New cambelt kit for turbo engine
And black intercooler. I know it is not that effective, but will look great.
I choose Gates cambelt kit because of the metal idler pulley instead of plastic.
Hope everyone is home and safe.
Paint some parta for a better engine bay look.
Some strange thing, the aux pulley does not have rubber inside, it does have metal bush and acts like a fixed pulley.
That one was on my previous engine and done around 40k miles without issues and using aircon.
Ready for summer.
Almost all the parts for turbo conversion are here:

Interesting, one friend does use them on e megane and they failed. I have in Romania a friend who has all the assembly line and make for me custom ones, they hold up fine. Maybe he is more careful...
