    Sooo Excited!! Getting my valver back

    Yes it will have boost :evil: Here's some pics I took of the repair work this morning The only downside is it's gonna cost an extra £100 as the roof had to be re-done :( the repair to the top of the B-pillar caused the roof to move a bit & cracked the paint

    Remaps and cylinder heads

    You'll need a new head gasket, new head bolts & a cam belt, big(ish) job but not too difficult to tackle yourself and afaik the ecu should be a straight swap
