Thanks david , have spoken to Mark, but he like everyone so far is waiting on deliveries, ordered one from GGR about 3-4 weeks ago now , supposed to be here last week "but may be another two " they are waiting on delivery from japan,
pain in the **** as it`s the only thing holding me up now, and I want to see if the Roger Clark 18g/gt35 hybryd turbo is as much fun as it sounds :-)
Have a good one

GGR`s is £550 + the vat which i believe to be an arc, autosportif wanted £600 + the vat for the same , both on back order from japan, or if you have very large pockets the prodrive group A one is a mear £3000 + but you could probably have one by the end of today :-)
autosportif will modify yours for somewhere around £160 ish but thats not adding wings so no capacity gain, which is what I am looking for.

Is it me or 600 pickles for welding a couple of wings on your sump an unreal amount of money? I have heard the main cause of engine failure is oil surge due to the sump not being baffled correctly?

na the £600 is for a new alloy bigwing baffeled sump, I have been very close to putting the original sump back on, new toy to play with and all that, but oil surge killed my last engine, so realy don`t that to happen again,
I can`t see that subaru would design it that badly in the first place, and I know that when I killed mine I was going "fairly well" :-) and in most cars I would have been on the roundabout not round it, so oh well
Have a good one
