Yep....after 3 months, my little clubman has returned, packing an 8psi punch good enough for 154rwkw at mania. It pulls really hard, come on boost really smoothly. Bloody happy with it. I'll post up some photos tomorrow when I wash the thing
EDIT: Was gonna put all this up tomorrow, but in answer to a PM ive had, this is whats been done:
-Full rebuild of engine comprising of carrilo forged rods, wiseco forged pistons, honed block, reground valve seats, new flywheel (old one had cracks in it), new clutch
-Garrett GT28R turbo
-SP manifold and turbo
-Custom 2.5\" exhaust with dual tips
-Custom IC piping, with Mania CAI hooked up aswel
-Wolf 3D Ecu,
-Bosch 460cc injectors

Yay the mellow yellow courtesy car is back! 
Seriously dude, that sounds freakin sweet. Congrats on finally getting it back and hope you have mucho funno with it always
BTW deez, if I remember correctly I think there were some legal complications that prevented Fuzzlet from mentioning the specifics of anything, but I know for sure it doesn't look like a cheap project
