If you just a bolt on turbo for a normal aspirated car you are p155ing your money away and will eventually blow it up. A Turbo car has a lower compression engine and you may also need to upgrade the crank due to extra power going through, remap the fuel system etc etc the list goes on.

Greeper I remember about 6 months ago we found the Red line on the Rev counter was different for alot of the mk2, some at 6.5k some at 7.25K, never found out why !
Girls and Guys,
The guy who did my alarm also fits ICE to cars. He is just finishing a project in a Scooby and has fitted the following.
2 * 12" Subs in boot. (Boxed)
Upgraded door speaks all round.
Digital TV reciever
DVD Navigation + DVD movie player
Flip out TV screen from Dash...

Nah it kicks in about 7k but the rev limiter kicks in around 7.2k - 7.5k so you have to be bl00dy acurate to change at the right moment.
1/4 mile is hard because of this, I found the light would light up and then within a spilt second the rev limiter would cut in.
I did find however if you...
Nic, do you know anyone who has a RT round your way ? If so a little test may be see how quickly the cars heat up for a cold start. If yours takes considerably longer than the other car then it could well be someone has removed the thermostat thus taking the heater longer to get warm or even the...

Something along the lines of heater control variable resistor, or heater resistor maybe. On the metro it was about 3 inches long and about 1/2 in diameter.
Look on the wiring diagram in the back of the book and look on the heater circuit, the resistor should be drawn something like a spring if...
OK guys I think I MAYBE able to help on the problem with the fan, sounds stupid but bare with me. On a metro there is a little resistor in the engine bay bolted to the bulk head. Now this resistor has a tendancy to get wet and rust and eventually fall apart. I believe this is the same on the...

Horace, As viceroy said but I seem to remember someone saying you have to have autoleveling on the xenon lights otherwise you can get it through the UK comformity.

They are HID Double Optical Xenon lights and would be very expensive to fit the unit cause you need different internals as well as the autolevel function, aparently the bulbs are around £120 a pair but come with a 5 year guarantee but not to sure how true this is.
