what power do you recon its running?
thanks mate, if u know what parts you need then its pretty straight forward and wont take long at all, mines got custom made steel plates made for manifold cost me £5 but someones floggin em on here for £60 i think :S and braided oil feed line £30, and power wise id say about 170hp ish was meant to go on rollers but fuel pump started playin up, but yeah id say about 170ish with the fuel turned up a bit but doesnt smoke on boost, needs fuel turnin up more then might get over 180hp out of it.
cool thats not to bad then. if i wanted some plates for the manifold do you recon you be able to get me what i need then? are the turbos a straight fit one you got everything you need?
all i did for the steel plates was go into my local engineering place and asked for 2 plates of 10mm thick steel, one was 5inch x 4inch and the other 5inch x 6inch, i think. then took them to the garage and got bloke who worked there to cut them to the right shape, took him a good day to get them right but was worth the £10 i paid him to do it lol, i doubt id be able to get him to do others cos he didnt realise how long it would take him, but like i said i think there's someone on here whos selling them, try n haggle the price down a bit
