Default Calibra Turbo Pistons

Where do i get some from? sounds like a daft question i know, but i've been quoted over £700 for a set from a supposed vauxhall tuner but i think thats total bollocks tbh.

can anyone shine any light for me please? i've done everything i can think of

Try Andy at AMT on 01246 273929, I know he has some in stock. He will also be able to help you out with a roller bearing turbo if you need one, very competitively priced.
