I wouldn't cut a corner on a gauge. Autometer (not Autogauge) are good quality and cheap from USA via eBay.
You may struggle to find one which gives you a 9-10 psi max, or even 1 bar, and you don't really want a 2+bar unit as you'll never use
more than 1/3rd of it.
Autometer do a 20psi unit as their lowest afaik.
Shouldn't be more than £8.00 posted from the US and the gauge will only be £23 on the current exchange rate. Similar gauge in the UK will be an
easy £45 + delivery.
May be some cheaper 2nd hand on eBay or other forums.

also do i need to get the exhaust gasses out asap, ie if i have two exits one 50mm and the wastegate is 25.
I can weild a 75mm tube over the 50mm and 32mm over the 25mm hole so it escapes quiker or do i just stick with a 50mm one and 25mm one.
These exit pipes will be joined after about 60 mm.

I have a 2wd sierra cosworth intercooler that used to be on my Dax Rush, it fits inside the nosecone above the radiator. Are you interested, its in
good condition. I have upgraded to a larger intercooler as I am running 25psi now.

Renault 5GT T intercoolers, with plastic bits removed, and ally welded on instead. Also changed the flow from in and out at same end to straight
through.

Boost peaks at 25psi and then holds about 22psi, certainly shifts.

Looks a nice construction, as a subaru owner tho, can I say heatsoak?
Make sure you have good scoops

No worries about heat soak. Air in at top, through i/c's then vented out of sides (these are ducted under coolers). Note side panels are proud
for air extraction with forward facing vents for air entry (primarily for air to filters). There's a vent on top of bonnet behind rad, and nose
section slightly wider to allow for air extraction
Maybe a bit of overkill

Err, the bonnet has been turned into the buck. It'll be moulded, then I'll make a new bonnet.
But you knew that, didn't you

No I didnt gt a rad from holeshot, cooling both oil and water is something that needs looking into on all turbo becs, next stage for me is to find out
what my intake temp is.
