yes i wouldn't have paid that for it if it didn't have a turbo

 

they are pretty quick if its the tt conversion,never been in a janspeed one

 

My old XR44x4 too some abuse and just kept going

 

Cool car,was thinking of it myself seen it on ebay.Its a turbo technics conversion by the looks,without the intercooler.Got a genuine tt intercooler here if your after one mate and some pipework.

 

can you put some pics up and how much you looking, the lad i bought it off, bought it like it is, its got a rs turbo intercooler, but the whole system hasn't been put in correctly. looking at other cars the inlet plenium on top of the engine needs turning 180 degrees for a start.

only problem is i'm not too clued up on the turbo versions of these engines, so any help would be good

cheers for the comments, Matthew

 

started stripping the inside out, not as bad i thought it might be, the inner sills have already been repaired, so theres just a couple of patches needed











cheers Matthew

 

i also did a bit on the engine bay, going to replace both front wings and slam panel, and repair the wing mounting panels













cheers Matthew

 

i've got a tt f18 pretty straight forward to work on and the parts are now available from tt again.i'm sure they would send you some pics or a fitting guide.
this is the second one i've had chopped the first one in for a cossie worst thing i ever did.
