must have read my mind :lol: cause today ive welded up the spare wheel well, 2mra ill fill the underneath of the well and smooth it off n paint soo looks as good as new

Would be good to see how that goes i thought of doing it myself, could get a manifold made up but wasn't sure if the internals of the engine would take the extra strain. What are you thinking of doin management wise?

yeah i guna do it, be somethin different, although i dont plan to have done til bout spring next year! the turbo im getting is only a small low pressure turbo, running about 7-8psi boost, i can get a thicker head gasket made to lower compression abit, seen on a few forums that you can run standard managment, as long as you get a adjustable fuel pressure regulator and higher flow injectors. ill see how it goes once its all done lol, if it blows it blows! :lol:

Put the amp on Ebay advertised as for parts or repair, it's amazing what people will buy, I've sold loads of junk for good money!
