I'll update this once I get everything 100% sorted but just throwing things down for now.
Got most of the information for the build so here is the tentative plan

CP Rods
CP Pistons
ACL Race bearings
ARP Head studs
Tomei cams
Power enterprise timing belt
Genuine Tensioners, pulley's, water pump etc
Tomei Equal Length Headers and Up Pipe
Plasmaman core with custom piping
Blouch Dom 2.5 XTR (could go with a different turbo)
Custom intake
ID injectors
Tomei fuel pressure regulator
Deatschwerks fuel pump
HKS LA single plate clutch

There is a few other bits I think I have left off for now but that is the majority of it for now.

Hopefully should be a very fun ride once its done!

Very neat, maybe also check out the ATP STI Gold turbo and potentially running Flex fuel or at least making sure everything is e85 ready.

So bit of an update, Has been a long while but had a number of changes to the build so everything got put on hold for a bit.

Car is mostly completed at the moment, just need to wait for the new cooler to arrive and then it will be fabricating up the piping for that and a few other misc bits and pieces. Motor was built by ABE, and will be tuned by Insight Motorsport in a few weeks

Here are some photos that I took over the weekend. The idea of this build is essentially to have as stock-looking engine bay as possible!
