Hi Matt and welcome to the forum.

 

Classifieds here are a good place to look as you tend to find cared for examples that way. Pistonheads is also good and Jurgen at J M imports can source very nice examples with a spec list tailored to your specific needs.

 

Best of luck with your search and hope you find what your looking for.

 

Cheers,

 

Pete :)

Just an update

 

I have got myself a single turbo 5 speed manual, had it just over a week now and im loving it (apart from the Clifford) all I am after now is more power lol

 

I'll try and get some pics up asap

 

You've only had a single turbo for a week and you want more power? Blimey!

 

In for the pics :)

It's running 387 at 0.6 boost not sure why it's so low but there must be a reason for it

 

Does anyone here know the car?

 

Maybe ask the person who built it if you can up the boost to gain more power. Unless they've just whacked a turbo onto it and not done any/enough supporting mods.

:yeahthat: Did the person who you bought it from not tell you it is a NA-T? This means it used to be a non turbo and someone has strapped one on the side of the engine... Not to say it isn't a good car but you need to find out about the mods its had. If you want more power I'd be carefull as you would have to upgrade lots of parts to make reliable and that will cost £££

Yeah I new it was an na with a turbo added on but I would have thought with the gearbox being strengthened and the tt crank and bottom end it would cope with more than 0.6 boost, the car has had a lot of ££££ spent on it with hks boost controller, fuel pressure regulator and the other bits too

Have you asked the guy who built it if you can up the boost safely?
