Doesn't look too untidy at the moment. Almost ready to try and lift the engine.



What came out so far:



Top side of my modified inlet manifold - I've taken all of the hard pipes out underneath while doing my parallel fuel rail job, so the turbo inlet hose is now completely separate from the manifold. Also you can see the regulator which usually lives on the n/s of the manifold now that I have no hard pipes there to get in the way:



Underside of manifold showing fuel pipe routing and heat insulating sleeving, particularly on the offside where it runs very close to the turbo:




Now I've just got a few more bits to remove, really just to clear all the pipes and wiring away from the actual engine, then I'll take off the water pipes and disconnect the loom on each side, and then I suppose remove the headers/up-pipe/turbo/downpipe? Or maybe just unbolt it at the downpipe and that will be enough?
