Well turbo outlet cut & away to get welded. So I thought I'd move on with another job.
Need some connections from the rx8 engine loom to power the dash, ABS & steering. Also the revers light & neutral switch wiring is in here. Info on this is not as readily available, like the VW stuff.
Also have the starter & charging loom to sort to work with the rx8 starter & VW alternator. Then get it all in the bay along with the VW loom & looking neat.

Both looms in & wired. Car now starts from the rx8 key, dash working. Need to tidy it all up to look nice now. Well chuffed.
Still lots to do intake still to finish, accelerator pedal to modify, fuel system to finish. But a least there is a bit of progress.
Cheers John

Made a start in the loom last night. Note to self, if someone who knows, tells you to try & avoid a loom from a Passat or A4. Next time listen. Most of loom is incased in a foam/tar, that has to be removed. #-o

Everyone in work thinks I'm mad, sitting doing this on my teabreaks. :P
