Fantastic mate, love em.

Got no turbo heatshield, but i hope there one between inlet+exhaust manifolds, or it fucks things right up, MEGA charge temps in the inlet and even gets the fuel evaporating before the engine.

Cheers for your replys guys.....

At least folks appreaciate the hard work ive put in,not like the average wanker with there "well you could of got anew car for what youve spent on that" comments!!!! IF I WANTED A NEW CAR,THAT LOOSES £200 A MONTH ON ITS PRICE,ID OF FUCKIN BROUGHT 1 THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Stavros...

Yeh fella,the carb/manifold sheild is there..Fucked the OE 1 off from the turbo,as the renix isnt above it no more,so its not needed,and fucked the perk fan off too,as there the 2 things that set fire....

Love 'em they are the best sounding turbo car ever when fitted with a nice stainless....i just love the noise

have always wanted to own one, had a spin in a 160bhp one a few years back and remember thinking this is insane fun!! steering was heavy on the same wheels you have mind? but i loved it once rolling, proper rush when you get a bit of speed on
