Got my injectors back from Greazzer, talk about A+ service. Very communicative through the whole process, huge insight into the condition of my injectors and they came back great. He even offered to service a spare injector of mine for free because the threads on one were messed up! If you need injectors worked on in the USA you must talk to Mark.

Got the accessories, head and random extras stripped from the turbo engine to paint it.

A bit messy taking off the pan, and i managed to drop it in the oil catch pan. Nothing smells more horrible than year old diesel oil, barf.
All masked up ready for some primer & paint! Kind of derped on the timing cover, i was planning to use the NA one because of the NA oil pan but then forgot the vacuum pump and some other bits are slightly different. Will repaint the timing cover with the intake manifold this week.

It came out pretty nice in my opinion! Happy to see all the rust gone at least.

Oil pan, oil cooler, & valve cover off the NA engine ready to go into the parts wash!

SO CLEAN!! Still needs a bit of scrubbing but man what a difference.

Big ups to Amar (Hooblah) for coming through with that engine cover
He also included a bar of galaxy which is not easy to get in the USA and hugely appreciated by a UK expat

I dont think many of you guys here are in to "stance" but i had my golf bagged a couple weeks ago. Loving the new suspension compared to the crap coilovers that were on it before, and its fun to see peoples reactions going up and down haha
