no idea on the power side as it's not yet been on the rollers yet, i'd guess around the 270-
I keep meaning to put them up for sale just haven't had a chance to get some good pics of them yet, there's a few busted clips on them but the immaculate unbroken jacking covers mean they've gotta be worth something
haha, yeah somehow mount them on my postie bike, set of stretched tyres and i could have a euro pimped bike
Update time
Time for another update on the car, seeing as work has pretty much died off it's given me a chance to use the workshop during sensible hours to get some more stuff done
Turbo is now all sorted and running again without the smoking issue, turned out to be a dodgy seal inside which was causing the problem, however im now experiencing a boost issue (or more lack of that im trying to get to the bottom of)
I've ditched my carbon canister/catch tank set-up for something with a shorter pipework run, all seems to be working fine at the moment so that's another job out the way.
With the track day at Cadwell Park slowly creeping up on me i decided there was a few bits i wanted to get sorted for it, oil cooler is (finally) almost plumbed in, just waiting on the take off plate and it will be finished.
Yesterday i replaced both the top mounts and fitted two new track rods that i'd had in my parts stash, just finished setting the camber and going back to sort the tracking shortly.
Not got any pics at the mo but will try and add some over the weekend if i get a chance.

Couple of updated pics as promised, only real things that have changed are the filter, catch tank and the ghetto modded front bumper
you my old friend are a nutter but im still waiting for a spin sometime soon im so missing the mk2 feel
One day mate, sure they'll be a track day next year you can tag along to
I see this when I saw your car
Funilly enough that's what gave me the idea the old series 2 RS turbo's, it was a track only mod but unfortunatly it's growing on me
The cut out has opened up the whole intercooler core so can't get much more air to it i don't think, still playing about with it all at the moment
