Glad you got the turbo sorted.
There's no where else to put it, but it's been fine so far :thumb:Quote:

Glad to here it's better now mate! looks tops as always.
Tell me about it, mine has split on the passenger side twice, but is sorted now, just got extra protection from rot on that side now! lolQuote:

I took off the inlet and exhaust side and just sent the turbo and manifold. They sent back the same turbo just all refurbed!Quote:

Have you taken it out yet?
Just for about 1 mile, it's raining now and i've still got to clean the rest of it.
I'll take it really easy for a while to ensure this turbo lasts.
Sounds good, do you think it was abuse that killed it then?
No idea Benn, but I think it makes sence to drive sensibly for at least 100 miles :)
Cheers for the info Keith, sorry for spamming your thread
I had to look twice!lolQuote:

It's now properly rapid!
Good lad ;)
Awesome dude, must fly.
You gotta love pulling off roundabouts in 3rd gear. Overboost kicks in, as done the MASSIVE smile on your face :D
Indeed, 3rd gear is a hoot!
Overtaking in 6th is just epic!
lol i cant wait to see this car at cookstown :D:D:D:D:D
