Project Winstonising a Renault 5 GT Turbo

[Bloooor]

I love how Illegally MINT your car is Winstony

 

[Ali]

lol.

 

[mr_merc]

You are surely not still running a bleed valve with that now, are you?

Get an AVC-R or the like, will hold boost higher up the rev range, whereas you won't be getting 1 bar high up.

 

[Dan 172]

Now that does look awesome.

Is having the exhaust there illegal?

 

[Mark One]

cool. Ultimate Cool

 

[Michael172]

[Winston]

Bleed valves tempo till i can get an uprated actuator... im having trouble as the he rod needs to have a bend in it to all line up

Got more goodies waiting at my folks to fit

Ive been told the exhaust might be illegal

 

[Chrisjk]

Until you get pulled over for it or fined its legal

 

[Winston]

[theduck]

[Limca]

[Nafoff]

like the bean can...thats a nice touch.

did you cut the bumper like that? tbh you could have done a better job...sorry

i am guessing the old wheels are going back on? what bucket is that? sorry for all the questions.

as for the legallity of the exhaust, not sure, my mates starlet runs it exactly like that and he was fine on the road

 

[theduck]

He smashed the bumper on a curb...

 

[Nafoff]

i thought that when typing it, can it not be tdied up in some way? i spose that may be on the cards

 

[snick01]

maybe someone else got on the green steels band wagon

eaither way pal....5 is looking ace, like you say coming on well

 

[$torm Rider]

Ive always had a soft spot for the 5 and yours looks great, loving the exhaust. Is it beneficial to performance being located there?

 

[PinkoCommie]

Very nice mate, takes me back to the white R5 GTT I had a few years back.
