Just a quick question.
The sensor on the intercooler pipe that connects to the intake has two wires marked one and two.
I have very clumsily pulled these out,which colours go to one and two or does it not make a difference.

It's just a boosted air temperature sensor, and doesn't seem to make much difference if its connected or not. As its just a passive component, which way round the wires are fitted into the plug makes no difference. However if you are replacing the plug (it's called a junior timer plug)(https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/1409384815...juO7OL-ZmgqJX9olRRzbpy9uQltFsArxoC93cQAvD_BwE), you can cut the seals out the old plug, so you can identify the correct colour location.

Thanks for that,thought it was best to check before I started randomly connecting wires.
