Well I've got a little more done and some pictures to show you. I've been having a little trouble with the clutch slave cylinder and getting the right master cylinder.
These are pictures of the flywheel and twin plate clutch, plus slave cylinder.

The car is back together and mobile, the clutch works perfect.

One or two pictures of the engine compartment near to completion.

I have driven the car up and down our road and it seems good and responsive, I have got a boost map to sort and check fuel map. Looking good though, well pleased.

Beautiful work. The intake/turbo layout looks so clean it could have come out of the factory.

How does the clutch feel? Is it progressive enough for a road car?

I'm going to be using it on the road. The clutch is from a TVR. It is a twin eight and a half inch organic clutch. Feels good, the only downside is a slight rattle from the plates when engaged.

Cerbera clutch I would guess? Interesting... I have to look into this.
No clearance issue at all after grinding/apdating the bellhousing then?

I have always wanted a Cerb, well before I got into 944s, would be fun to adapt this clutch setup on my car.

Edit : just seen the Tuscan mention. Is it the same clutch for both 3.6 and 4.0 engines?

Are you going to install some kind of heat shield between the turbo and the brake reservoir?

I dread to think what this would cost if the time was factored in as well as the parts.

What do you think?

Yes mate, make a stainless steel one that's the same shape as the servo ans it will have heat proofing between the two.

Sorry for the late reply. I ended up using the Garrett Stage 5 turbo with the T350 wheel, works very well except the back pressure is a little higher than I would have liked at high rev's. It comes on boost well pulls hard and I'm mainly using it on the road.

Cheers Tim
