quick history. purchased the car in December and thought the wastegate actuator needed replacing. Turns out head and turbo were junk. I got a fresh AEB head with 800 miles on the rebuild and low mileage KO3 Sport turbo. Had all the standard timing belt stuff done at that time: Timing Belt, Updated Tensioner, Tensioner Roller, Idler Roller, Water pump w/gasket & o-rings (Techno Polymer Impeller), Water pump housing, Thermostat with O-ring, Thermostat housing, A/C Belt, P/S Belt, Alternator Belt, Camshaft seal, Crankshaft seal, Intermediate shaft seal, Crank pulley hardware, waterpump.
Upgraded the following at time of head replacement
new 3" downpipe
42DD O2 sensor spacer
APR Turbo inlet pipe
forge diverter valve
also replaced:
Air/Cabin/fuel filter
Upper front strut mounts
all engine mounts
transmission mounts
the control arms were done prior to the purchase, but they are in good shape
Car is an AEB 1.8t, 5 speed GLS. Power windows and locks. 160K on the clock with some scratches, but overall a clean car. I drive 800 miles a week and car averages around 27mpg.
