hello no pics it is a very quick car there is a saff around here close to the 500hp mark and the escos certainly showed that how to dance, i have tried telling him to enter totb but he just keeps on making up excuses i dont think he wants to get beat but at that sort of power in a motorsport shell not much will but next summer is looking good, what is on next year i have just bought a 2wd saff and will be wanting to enter it in to some events cheeRS

Touring car, ahh them were the days.

when the 1ST GULF WAR came around, he to his credit he came up
with the ditty DESERT STORM , for his blue sierra cos.
the war was called the same by the yanks
his stuff went like a missile,i know i went in a few
i guess this one follows on. there were other conversions
based around how much power you rquired

Performance Turbo Systems (PTS) = Luton way
TurboSystems = Staff's

Two different companies, TS also had a TS South based in London many years back.
