1999 Turbo 2000 with boost gauge, short shift prodrive gearbox, racing headers, afterburner vortex, cruise control (some aftermarket thing! I will never use it!), dump valve etc.

Since I've bought it I've become less sure that the gearbox is the prodrive one, how can i check?

I've got mixed feelings about the wheels and the headers. I'd love white wheels but not sure I could handle the cleaning of them though...

The headers are the burble less racing type. I want my scooby sound!

I'm not sure there is a massive BHP increase either, especially as this car hasn't been mapped...

You don't get a prodrive box, it'll just be the quick shift but I'm not sure they made those, it should be fairly obvious if it has got a kit by taking off the gear lever surround and having a nosey at the linkage.
I'd loose the dump valve as well personally, other than that looks like a nice clean classic wagon.

headers will be equal length hence the loss of the burble...ported OE headers would get you the sound back and probably see an increase in torque if you are at a modest level of tune.

nice wagon
