She lives again after 3 years of silence. I still need to pull the turbo and fix a leaky intake manifold gasket so i can get some boost and bleed the clutch and brakes and install the exhaust system

Here is a video of it running and driving with 5spd goodness. I need to install the exhaust and replace the intake manifold gasket its leaking boost. And it need the rear nitrogen canister replaced badly
