All this has made me get my Garrett back out the shed and start pondering again...

ffs Toby  :angry:

This is making me reach for the credit card for the manifold.

I said no more engine work!!

Chuffed for you dude. Wicked figures
Will always love my mk4 but she had to go...225 Quattro TT in its place....but its still black (she lives on in spirit!)
