tossed up all the equasions and this seems the better route i know its expensive but have no intentions of ever selling the car

Cheaper in the long run than a G60 though. Top piece of kit. I was tempted to buy Tophs when he was selling his a while back. Looking forward to seeing a pic of it on the car. :wink: Keep us updated.

Mate of mine was running one of these on his corrado . if i can find the video of him coming off an island and up the dual carriage way it sounds awesome! 

There wer only about 4 or so in the UK when he bought his,  cost him £1000 second hand,  new theyve gone up quite alot i notice  !

Should be awesome when on  ,  oh and a tip if the police pull you over  "Yeah i think the cambelt is a bit tight officer "  :grin:

The noise those things make is redickerous! Like some sort of demented police siren, yet somehow still cool. Bet your neighbours will love you :grin:

i bought a whole kit from a friend of a friend but there is a whole kit on ebay at the moment if it has ended you still might be able to contact him and enquire about it,, i have pretty much everything that he has got in the picture/list   http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140588148152&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
lysholm sr2 charger, mounting bracket with secondary altenator tensioner pulley bracket, this is very important other wise you cant get the belt round every thing see my link for ideas pay particular attention to the way the belt is wrapped around every thing in pictures 1+2 and then see the differences in pic 3. hope this helps.
