Greetings from Thatcham!
This is my car, I've owned it for just over a year now and im very happy with it so far!

Stainless steel exhaust with De-cat pipe, Green panel filter, 3 port boost valve and remapped by JGM
Here's my Classic Turbo 2000:-

I have recently bought some Silver alloys from mantazini on this forum (top guy may i add!) , pics to follow.

car was running 138 bhp/138 lbs/ft with just the cat back exhaust and panel filter. now running 266 bhp / 277 lbs/ft. JGM reckons the turbo was holding the car back, apparently the standard turbos do 280 max, but mine is 100000 miles old so its probably not as effiecent as it once was. I was saving for a new new turbo, but unfortuanatly my rear shocks are leaking, so i need sort this out first.

Yeh there are so many options, i've been reading the forums for a while but still not quite sure what can be fitted as a direct replacement or whether it is right angled or straight as standard.

A few pictures from tonight, with my silver wheels!







Looks a bit low at the back compared to the front, possibly due to the knackered shocks! New shocks and springs on order

No Chance! Black looks dirty / boy racery

I like the car to look pretty much standard with only subtle changes (black = too much), I have one STI rear light, looking for a reasonably priced drivers side light so i can stick it on.
