I would add a set of r7420 plugs( 9/10, or 10/11 depending upon boost pressure), a water injection kit, and a new engine/ignition wiring harness. Everything else looks great

Water injection is not completely necessary below 16psi, above this on pump gas a smart idea..

I think map the CAR to safe boost Max 1.0 bar for road/strip and occasionally track day.
The engine is shipped in italy whit consegnato.com. but no suggest this anymore for cardboard box end another problems
I don't know the difference between RHD to LHD for harness, my car is JDM import. not UK model.
Someone help for harness?
I try to change mine, but I'm not sure of a good result

Why in this guide does not change the harness?
I could not do the same?
certainly with good harness would be a better job...

New wheels look really nice. I like the look better in the grainy picture since it makes them look like they match the car a bit better, but the style is definitely good.

im tackling a turblown td61 building myself! Really happy with the turbo and mine is just the journal bearing one.. not as fancy as yours lol. I wont be running water injection either. Just 14psi pump gas on my original motor w/ 50k miles.

You have some ***** to drive the FD in rome! Ive been there 3 times and I can easily claim Romans as being the craziest, scariest, and ballziest drivers. And I travel a lot! Parking the FD in rome is a warrant for dings and scratches too.
PS: I rented a vespa for a few days in Rome. Never again.

You should probably read some of the reviews on that product. A number of owners have had issues with the company and their products. Do a search. Good luck!
