I absolutely dread to think H, don't want to add it up mate in all honesty!

Hope you enjoyed the spin in it Tom, just a shame its not running right as its definatly down on power.

Ad you know you want it, Pulls like a train! Just to confirm its a standard fit turbo and has made 500+ on vpower on a 2.5 if you check out the billet thread, mine was making about 480 on meth on a 2.0 but can crack 500 if i'd changed the oem map sensor for the boost pressure

yes mate me and Andy both enjoyed it thanks it's helped me decide that that's definitely the turbo I want for mine now.

If you give me the date you're going to start breaking your car mate I'll either pop over to you or I'll give u a list of things I'm after and we can sort a price out then if you like?

I'm sure there are two for sale in the main for sale section (one genuine and one copy). Expect to pay 200-300 for a genuine, and 100-200 for a copy, hope that helps

Birchys car FLYS! You should sell tickets for rides Didn't realise how quick it was until I got back in mine. Felt like stepping into a N/A motor lol. Shame to see it broken really I think you'll have another sooner or later as nothing feels the same after having a scoob (been there, done that, got the T-shirt).

Haha, i have to say yours sounded so nice when you left! Oh god yeah, few years and i'll be back, probably doing exactly the same thing again, seems to work well together

Not really Kosta, took it out so they could feel the billet power, have to top it up with oil each time it comes out and wipe down the bay after as its good to show it runs and the box is fine on it.

evening all

Sad to see you go Birchy, but I know you will be back

Jimmy congrats on the new purchase, I miss my old V-Limited type R





Great cars, well done (p.s will you need new WMI stickers or you still got the ones you bought Boxing Day?, you can swap if different colour is required)
