Can't remember exact figures but an experiment was once done regarding a Ford Mondeo. To buy new the car was about £18.5k, to build in parts from dealer I'm sure it was around £175K :shocked:

fecking crazy

I was going to fit the pipe myself but I thought by the time i drag my tools out, get under the car and sort it out it could be done and I'll be on my way to Portsmouth

Plus I get labour and warranty on the pip and the fitting - not ideal but as you said CONSIDERABLY cheaper than a new turbo......

Glad you got it sorted mate, gutted i can't go to JKM, maybe sort out a little trip to R Tech at some point, i want to get the map done again anyway so when the scooby is gone i think it maybe going for a trip north and maybe a front mount if they are done by then.

I know Matt is organising an RR day end of October but I won't be going.  Maybe look at organising another one next year
