Back from Holland - Had a bit of a nightmare trying to find a set of cir-clip pliers big enough to remove the compressor housing. Had to improvise in the end. Man, that cir-clip is TIGHT!

Managed to swing the orientation, tapped a new M6 hole, then pinched a few parts off the old turbo, to get the actuator in the correct place on the new turbo.

Need to grab an oil outlet block from somewhere now, then get it back on the car so the new pipes can be fab'd.
