Pics from my porting and polishing adventure. I didnt like the loss of torque that the after market header provided so I ported and polished the stock manifolds. Much better.

The wagon got a P&L Tial 50mm bov setup for christmas. The 12psi spring that came with it was way to strong so I ordered a 9 PSI spring for it and got the 1bar spring I needed for the waste gate. I’ve got my eye on the Grimmspeed external waste gate setup. Hopefully it’ll be on an tuned for spring.
