Sorry to be Mr Ignorant - but what does it actually do for the car? Apart from make a chattering noise like a WRC car (if Im thinking of the correct thing, which is a damn fine reason to have one 
) as you back off? I believe its to protect the turbo in some way, but is replacement just a noise obtaining thing?
Im interested cos Im spending a few quid on the my96 Ive got, and Im interested in fiddling about a bit under the bonnet, just to see if I "get the bug" as it were...
So, any info you can give me (Ive seen the nice pic on the forge website and its a lovely purple colour
) might just tempt me.
I believe its just a case of replacing the standard with the Forge, but any advice on where it is and if its easy / difficult to get to and fit would be also much appreciated...
Im off to read through the technical forum

It would mak your car sound like a WRC car like you say.It also prevents the turbo from stalling, so in theory better excelleration as the turbo continues spinning rather than stalling(which *can* be hazardous to your turbo, but more often than not it isnt) when you shut off the throttle.
Can become annoying, depends on the individual!

OK, the WIFE (!) wants one and Ive mailed forge to ask if they can confirm it will fit to my96 and what I'll need.
I think this is the little standard chap, isnt it?
I'll give you your 75 and Im only down the m62, so I'll come and get it, assuming the chap who posted just above this hasnt already grabbed it :|
If I dont get an e- mail from forge today I'll telephone them on Monday and ask them, cos theres no one there at the moment.
Can you mail me a cointact number for yourself?

Thanks for the number - I'll ring you later and tell you the bad news if you havent already read it..
It wont fit, says the man at Forge - apparently its too big for my car, and I need a different one :\
So, thanx but no thanx. Hope you get rid of it soon. And he also told me it will whoosh, not chirp, unless I fit an induction kit as well...hmmmmm...
