Turbo upgrade - "Budget" no longer applicable

Head gone. Those head bolts gave me a hell of a fight

Edit: Head removed while waiting for street mod cams and forged pistons to arrive. Next up is removing the oil pan and push out stock pistons. I already have new piston ring sets so I'll file ring gaps to "Neville specs" too.

New liners, dont cheap out now 😁. I mean without proper seal its all a waste. 👍, Neville also has valve springs you may need😎. And dont take too much off the deck if youre gonna clean that head surface up. But looking good, please, carry on.
Liners have only seen 44.000 gentle, stock'ish kms so no new liners 😅
Compression was very good also. Piston change is just to replace eggshells with boost capable ones.
But I got the virus now, so when I replace the starter turbo I got now with one proportional to a 2.3L engine, who knows what else appears on the shopping list
Cheers
Edit: 38.000 kms. Don't know how I got that wrong. It sure as h*ll hasn't moved an inch since august last year.
