Are you coming to the bromsgrove meet on sunday?

Doo
I have an MY98 turbo wagon in red.
Did you buy your car from a dealer? If so, should'nt they be
able to inform you what mods have been done.
If it was private,then what did the last owner say.

if it's antilag it basically spins the turbo even when yer not using it great for huge flames & bangs coming out yer exhaust as Rob will show u in his 22b & theoretically reduces turbo lag if u use it while driving but does have implications for life span of yer turbo that's IF it's antilag sure the experts can advise you when they see it
