VLKING you need ignition leads, spark plugs and a wastegate actuater hose, you'll probably want a boost controller as well. Get the mechanic to check all the connections and sensors as well, any performance workshop could do this, just tell them your on a budget. If you want to run big boost I would be putting the car on a dyno as well!

i am extremely suprised at the manner in which everyone behaved themselves, i thought there was going to be a bit of action, but to no evail. i suppose if there wasnt so much traffic. VLKING, apart form new leads, plugs etc, you badly need to flush your whole coolant system, do a pressure test and maybe even need a new radiator. In the mean time, empty the water and fill it up with coolant. try to do as much yourself as possible, and dont bodge it up. workshops cost a fortune no matter what budget you are on. let me know by pm how much they want to charge and i might be able to help you out.

Who was the person hanging out of the car taking the pics? I'd love to see those driving shots. the guy hanging out of the car taking pics was boostedcal, there is a link to most of the pics in the photos thread, i have more but i ran out of webspace Boostedcal had a video camera too , he will probably upload some clips or maybe send out vids i dunno, he got about an hours footage. if anyone wants all the pics i can burn a cd and send it to you. cheers Scott Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Cool, I hope he uploads some of the movie clips! Cos I kno that i'm in a couple!
