Nice!

Must come round and visit at some point.

PS - My Turbo is currently at TT for works - managed to bend my wastegate shaft, so it is being replaced with an Inconel shaft rather handily.

Speak to Hamish or Ryan on 01604 705050

Cheers mate

Actually, it was their suggestion by coincidence. Their exact words were...

"Unbelievably the shaft has actually bent really quite impressively. We can put another shaft in the same as the one that we took out, or we could put our upgraded shaft in that we use on our Escort Cossie Rally Cars etc. It has an inconel shaft, and you probably wont break it!!!"

To which I replied - do it! As the turbo is covered by warranty, they have agreed to do it for a contribution towards the inconel part only! Hurrah for TT - best people to deal with when things go wrong by a mile!!!

To add, they also went through the rest of the turbo whilst it was there to make sure all was well - proper customer service! Love it!
