one major consideration with turbo'ing a car that was never designed for it is the ongoing costs of maintenance

Re: Clio turbo out at bedford (inc following Mikes ITB car and a huge 100mph+ sideway

list of stuff to do now is simply add the cooksport springs and remove coilies, add some 10-15mm spacers,stick on the whiteline and powdercoat some parts to tidy it all up :)
