Fittid me actuator and cleared his codes. Started it and no 'restricted perfirmance' message on the dash. Revved to 4000. Not ideal but still no codes. Before it were limited to 2k5vrevs.

Went ferra drive. Stayed on local 30mph roads and all ok. Big difference avvin the turbo wukkin. Then went down the big A road. When it got to 55mph 'restricted prrformance' popped up. Pulled into a lay by un found P2033 eggsauce gas temp high. Cleared. Drove again but came back at 55mph. This time eye noticed there was partual turbo power it was there before wasn't finking about it. Pulled over again and hadda look round me engine. Found a connecter hanging oft. One of the ones eye disconnected when checking the wiring harness. Plugged in and he wuks ok now. Went ferra drive on the motorway to clear his pdf. It did. Then got stuck int traffic. Just gottid home.
Excellent result! :D

Gottid me finking about me dad's ole 1L metro from the 80's. As wiv tratters today, cars dint av much power back then. Ma hippo's turbo is a variable vane type which spins all the time. Even at low engine revs yer notice the loss ov power when he's broke'd. Ma hippo would still av add more power than the metro when broke'd but cars have longerer and higher gear ratio's these days so they be different. Must be the reason why top speed were lowerer on metro's but they could still eggscellerate, but slowly.

The metro had an A series engine. Highly tune-able and mine would leave most cars standing at the lights. High lift cams, skimmed head and many more mods :D

Cannot "like" this @kevstar but I wish you every success mate.
My younger brother had to have a ball removed as a 20-something young man after he twisted it and cut the blood-supply off and it went bad and swelled up like a grapefruit.
He's been fine ever since.
I hope that you are similarly successful and this all goes as well as possible for you.
You will be in all of our prayers.
Good Luck.

Yup hope so they did s@y if its in the testis @t le@st its outside the body, ive seen @ll the sc@ns
@ been comp@red to norm@l @n other ones so it does look very different.
Better to get it de@lt with now r@ther th@n le@ving it for 3 months, they were worried @bout it
getting @n @bsess spelling o_O then th@t wouldnt be good further down the line m@king things
more difficult to rectify.

I put the engine from a MG Metro into a Mini.
It sure went like poop off a polished shovel!
They reckon it was the best Cam BL ever put in an A series. ;):D:D

iirc it bolts str@ight in when you ch@nge the engine mounts but you need to use the complete
metro unit wif ge@rbox c@use the clutch mech is different. yer i h@d minis n metros too. :D
H@d @ metro gt@ :cool::D
