Standard set up will be much more expensive believe it or not   :wink:

It just bolts straight on same as fitting standard set up .

IIRC i got all the parts and fitting for 340 pounds  :evil:

Around 4hs labour i would think bud.

Dam sorry to hear about the camera - might be able to go to one of those speeding courses to avoid the points?  :undecided:

Ok so how bad is it?

Any ideas on whatcould be the problem?

Driving home today, the car is perfectly normal up to about 25000 revs, then the turbo kicks in. It seems to lose ALOT of power, the revs reach the limit very quickly but there is still power to a certain extent. If I then change gear it is fine again until the turbo kicks in.

Im hoping its not the turbo on its way out?

First though was a lose pipe, have checked what I can get to and all seem fine. Have left it for an hour, taken it for a drive again and doing the same thing.

PLEASE HELP!! Any ideas greatly welcomed.

Cheers,
Nick

i'm afraid at 25,000 revs.. your clutch isn't going to handle it too well!  :grin:
