    The turbo came from Will @ VRS (who posted above you), i cant quite remember where he sourced it from, but it was brand new, and came in at a grand +VAT IIRC.
    .
    I know the source I'm pretty sure it was done to Wills spec so if you want one contact VRS

        Dmitri... not so much a run-in map, but a generic map before its custom mapped.

        Either way it looks like it's boosting a little too low, not seeing above 22psi.

        The car is up at VRS next week so will look into it then along with the final oil change.

                  Just given the old girl a quick tidy up... she needs a bit of TLC on the paintwork, but from a distance still scrubs up well...

                      Sonic! Your car looks amazing! i wish mine scrubbed up that well.
                      Im probably in no position to comment but...If i was being super critical i would say that maybe your RS2 bumper grills might look good sprayed black to match your bonnet grill?

                        Cheers - but i've given up trying to keep them black, regardless of how many times i have them sand blasted, primed and painted, they always end up looking dull after a few months!

                          Are they aluminium? If so then anodizing is your friend

                            Dont think so.. They're pretty mangled to be honest, could do with replacing them

                              This did just prompt me to dig out my back-to-black can and head outside with the torch on my phone to see what i was doing
