OK now I really need help! I've managed to install all of the intercooler and piping - so effectively the charger is up and running!!!
HOWEVER, in the process I shorted out the alternator with an intercooler pipe and popped the 120A alternator fuse
Lexus Southend have ordered me a new one but there's no ETA so I'm F*CKED.

man i think you need to take a step back and go in the house and grab a beer then go back outside and look at how good the car is comming along then worry about the fuse tomorrow

Take Jay's advice Jim...
If you're worried about it getting nicked, stick it on axle stands and put the wheels in the garage.... but relax - it'll be fine............

well i've just bridged the fuse with a bit of bolt that I cut off earlier.
Thing is the battery is flat as a pancake (i'm guessing because when i started it earlier with the alternator fuse blown it totally discharged the battery)?

That'll be why mate, the starter motor pulls quite a bit of power starting the car, and nothing to charge it again will have discharged it.
