Update all!
First of all....new turbo has been fitted....and holly shit!!! This thing launches HARD now.
Secondly, bought a new car today so sale is now urgent. Ill take $3500 fairly firm without the stereo in it if someone is interested. If you still want it with the stereo, we will discuss prices ;)

This is mainly a note for you james...but also for anyone else who is interested.
The car is currently running stock boost, as the guys who built my turbo asked me to take it easy on it for a while just to make sure it all seats in properley and doesnt fuck up again.
What i didnt tell you though james is that i do have a boost controller sitting in my room, and it comes with the car. Ill even show you how to install it if you dont know how.
And on the note of taking it easy on the turbo....i would appreciate it if anyone that wishes to test drive this car themselves, could please respect my wishes and not give it a hard time while doing so. I will drive first just to show you how it launches, coz i know what it can take, and have also mastered the art of getting it to launch hard without flogging it too much....but would ask that if you are driving yourself, please just take it easy, and take the time to get a feel for it.
I konw it may seem as though im being over cautious, but, if you are to buy the car, it doesnt matter as it is then ur car and would obviously be your problem, but i just wanna make sure that incase you dont buy it, there isnt any damaged caused. I get nervous about my cars
Cheers guys

It could cope with a few quick stints, but i dont want it being race driven for a long amount of time.jameshey_1 wrote:alright mate but it is sort of needed to floor the engine to high revs a bit to see how it handles but we'll discus it on saturday mate
But yeah, we can discuss it on saturday

EDIT: Spoke to the turbo builder. For the duration of a test drive, it could easily sustain a good boost run, he just recommends that if you do buy the vehicle, you give it another week or so before driving it like that regularly.
Admitedly the cars not insured....but we can get around that on saty ;)
