uk-rich Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 turbo in un polished condition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Mmmmmm that is lovely. This is my turbo of choice for a built engine. Loving the heatcoating too. I saw Tony License's ones and they looked like the same sort of job. I wonder if you used the same place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
