The bay is very red and not to my liking but it's had far too much done for me to warrant reversing it all.












After that I got offered a wheel swap with a mate that would suit the 2 better than its current chavvy shoes so I went ahead with it.













At this point I had driven it for a while and had been toying with the idea of getting rid of it because of the horrible turbo performance.





I bought a ct20b off Sheppy from here


The turbo arrived and the task of changing it had to begin.










Ct20b arrival, looking dirty but no abnormal play, no oil, perfect.









Ct26 out







Ct20 in.




I started looking for a standard side vent set so I could remove the skirts and spats but I hadn't had any luck for a while.










Then still to no avail with the side vent, I got bored and decided to become an antisocial teenager.



















I managed to setup some rota fighters in bronze, 17x8 fronts, 17x9 rears.




















This is where I am at now, I'm not happy with the look of it just yet but it's getting there.





The car drives lovely though, since I bought it I had a few teething problems with boost hoses splitting due to being too close to the raw heat of the exhaust manifold





When I fitted the ct20 I didn't realise until half way through that the manifold wasn't standard and that it made the turbo mount slightly off the correct position so the support bracket on the bottom didn't fit so I had to leave it off.





































I will update this as much as possible when I make progress, thank you for taking the time to look at my thread, any constructive criticism welcomed and any other comments appreciated.
