didnt realise i could just lose the turbo will try it i think. Just need to get a set of head bolts and gasket as i swapped the head with a mate. I only asked as money is tight [bloody kids are expensive] and my missus doesnt really want it on the road, so i have to be as economical as possible to keep her sweet lol. I have acess to a writ off xr i was just gonna swap the engine but after reading what people have suggested i will try just the exhaust instead. This is my first post and already i am loving thess forums thankyou everyone who has made a suggestion. will let you kn ow how it goes.
