Default my new car

bought it monday night from surrey. its got chip, greens, 3bar map sensor, stainless, koni shocks and a bit of bling under the bonnet

does anyone know the car ive got a folder full of receipts. it had a engine rebuild december last year.
its running 20psi so roughly what bhp would it be running. ive got a receipt for a stage2 hybrid turbo but i dont know if its still on there as i have receipts for other bits such as polished camcover and actuator cover but they arent on it any more

not going to do much to it probably fit an rs500 splitter and intercooler and lower it a bit
bodywise theres a little bit of rust on the drivers side rear arch which im going to get done asap before it gets to bad, but underneath is mint so i'll get it up on the pit and wax oil it over the winter as im only going to drive it till end of september when the tax runs out.

could be about 300-310 bhp with that boost all depends really

nice car ,make sure the rear chassis legs are good tho ,right above the rear springs as it can rot like fook there and need a good look on ramps etc

had a play with a scooby and wasted him on bank holiday monday, only problem i wasted my turbo aswell well atleast it lasted a week!

after i took the turbo off i could see water had been running down the side of the block so i took the head off only to find some tw*t had been running it with no anti freeze and the head had badly corroded around the water jackets

so ive had the head rebuilt, replaced all the gaskets, bought a new t34 turbo, new a1 rally sport chip, and got my self a forge 500cooler and my cousin donated his old red samco's

i had a little moment on the bay and bought some more stuff
ford racing oil pressure gauge and a boost gauge to go in my carbon heater pod
