Hey guy's, we are pushing extremely hard this time, right in the middle of final assembly with only a couple hiccups. No time for photos will put
some up later when I get a chance.
Cheers Dave!

OMG, it runs! Cam all run in now, got a small oil leak to deal with in the morning then off to the Dyno for a tune before Sydney. What a massive
effort it has taken to get this far. A big thanks to Mick, Matt, Dad, Aaron, Mr Butler, Troy and everyone else who had a part in the final stretch of
this build I couldn't have done it without you guys!!!
Cheers Dave!

Onya Dave, if anyone had seen Dave in the last few weeks walking around looking like the walking dead, you soon realise what a mammoth effort he put
in himself.... While the rest of us more or less worked in shifts, mine was all day and night on my 3 day weekends, matts was during the week but Dave
did all of them... Awesome work bro. Give yourself some mega credit.

You going to be ready for Sydney after setback on dyno? Don't give up dude stick with it!! Troy had 4 sessions on the dyno before the type 3 was
ready to go. First was clutch let go, then gearbox milled teeth off 3rd, injectors sprung a leak then finally got it going!! Even then we couldn't
put the boost we wanted into it as the injectors were almost at 100% duty cycle and wastegate spring would only give max 18psi.
The joys of building a quick aid cooled vw!!!
