well change of plans abit, i am still going to get a new engine, but also get a bigger turbo instead of getting the throttle body done. also might get the new computer then aswell, just thinking which one would be better..
well i hope everything goes to plan, but bad news.. i will be off the road for longer (about 1 month still)...
at least when i do get it, i know it has be taken care by one of the best...

You can say that again, not many mechanics will treat your car like their very own :cry:

Being fair though, every mechanic does have a kinship with one type of car, and if you happen to own that particular car and look after it, then they tend to look after it + your wallet also :beer
Computer games don't affect kids I mean if PacMan affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music :D

sorry, must have misread the post. What kind of turbo are you going to run? Should end up pushing some serious numbers :beer

You mean 300hp at the engine right, as that would probably be the limit of that turbo in a highflowed state. Unless of course you mean td05.
