I might come up for a look, probably only be in something rubbish though.

Hopefully i'll get to chat to some people this time instead of having to sort out recovering the car.

Its in portmouth. nice long drive home in a truck limited to 56mph!! although not too bad.

I changed gear at about 6200rpm and it chattrer as per normal then mid chatter the chatter became more of a fart. then it wouldn't make any boost, popped the hose off the front and it looks like the bearing collaped and the turbine hit the casing.

all fun fun fun
