that seems a very minor list of issues for a 9k escos!

Pete, max offered me 15k with the centrelocks and to be fair iwas tempted but it wasn't for sale, I value that car at 12-13k tops on standard wheels. Still do now but going on escort prices I should have valued it at about 16-17k lol

Dave, if it does ever shit itself i,ll get a T34.48 and just run it around 27-28psi peak, Karl said that,ll be fine even with the 4x4 cooler AND that turbo should NEVER die then.... hopefully..

Saying all this though Dave, Twellsie made 326/350 on his 4x4 saff running the Gunship on a T3..... that,s good torque that...
