Question....

Does a front mount work with a standard turbo ?
Or do you have to fit a bigger turbo ?

all aboard!!!!!!!!!


Front mount is the only way to go!!!! and of course you then need to upgrade the turbo, fit bigger injectors, fuel pump, remap and bigger brakes!!!!! and kiss goodbye to £1250, but you know what happens, you mod it, love the extra power, drive it abit and get used to the extra power and you then want more!!!!!!

I feel sick at the mo, I've just gone and curb the outer rim on the left side on front and rear new alloys.

Front has about 2in , Rear about 4in.

Will somebody please do me a favour and come and give me a kickin, I just don't deserve to live.

2 days on the car and already damaged. Shhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiittt.

Anybody have any recommendations on how to get these repaired without the process of having powder coating.

Well I've found the website chipsaway in cardiff, I'll see what they can do.

Something else I might consider is looking for tyres that can offer rim protection, the ones that pretrude the outside of the rim.

Anybody have idea's which tyre would be best.

be careful who you say you are after rim protection to!

225 tyre should do it, I had a close call the other day and this saved me from a nasty kerb mark.
