Dont' know, the wastegate was hitting the bulkhead, I think it may have just twisted it off as the engine rocks. Going to change the arrangement

you defo need more bracking on that join mate - all that pressure onto one weld isnt the best. can u get some bars put across to brace it ?

it needs more bracing for sure, but on my turbo i also put the forth engine mount on, it goes at the botton of the gearbox on to the subframe. a bloke on ebay was selling them from france. They cost around 90 quid delivered but took nearly all the engine movement out, so may be worth it if you having probs with that.

The 4th mount is a very worthy mod. Summeh and I picked one up for my car for about £7, a bargain!

I can vouch for Justins car, having just followed it in a van. It seems to go round corners like its on rails hehe! Certainly shifts as well even though I know I was in a old van.
