Tony,
How many Turbo Systems stickers did you give away as even our local sign shop sells them...LOL

Turbosystems

iTrader: (5)

didn't give them away except to customers cars that we had modified.
sticker companies added them to their own product range

Deffo, and would give you more power too.

Just shows how big TS was back in the day.
Tony how come none of your customers cars are never at any of the mag thrashes, sure you have a few cars out there that are up there with the best still.

Mike1

Kevin Gribble was at the Top Car mag shootout - Will Gollop did most of the driving it says

SiZT

The same reason you don't see many high power NMS cars I would imagine. The owners just want to drive them

NEIL A

iTrader: (6)

Very true and i supose Tony trades on reputation and word of mouth rather than pics in mags , but it would be nice to see some other tuners cars rather than the other big 3. I remember seeing a car in the back of one of the mags last year at a group meet that looked to be the same spec as Kev Sharps old car, so there are still a good few big spec TS cars out there.

SiZT

Yeah, it would be good to see. Suprised Kev hasn't had the mags jumping on him for a feature yet.

1988 Cosworth Ł100,000 + spent 600bhp This belongs to a good friend who has owned it for the last 17 years.

The car had been in dry storage from 2002 (when it was last taxed) until about 8 months ago, since it has been outside. She had the oil and plugs changed about the same time and was driven to its current location.

Engine has done 34172 miles.

Mainly Stainless tanks and Aeroquip braided piping
Specially commissioned 6 speed gear box (can’t remember make, I’ll find the bill eventually, but it was made in America to spec by a company specialising in drag racing kit and was over Ł5k. Got fed up with breaking the standard gearboxes!)

Originally was around 580bhp without the Nitrous. The Nitrous is set to give a very modest extra 35-40bhp but the jets could be changed to give more. This car has been in various magazines. One magazine recorded 219.6mph at Bruntingthorpe, that was before the nitrous was fitted.


This is a car that I have looked at on many occasions but I have just not got the time or the space to take on a project of this kind.

Offers in the region of 10 -12k the sister car to this sold a couple of years ago for just over 15k

so whats wrong with the car then?seems cheap for that spec?

SiZT

Judging by the photos its hardly been cared for. Buy it Tony for old times sake!! If only to save Kev from breaking it.
