I think you should keep it!

 

It started out as a fantastic car, and has only gotten better. Why would you want rid after all that you've done?!

 

If it has to go though, sell it as a whole car. You may loose out on a bit, but it's much simpler and you'll get to see someone else enjoying it.

depends what you want?

 

A longish sale of the car complete for pretty good money, but nowwhere near what you spent on it?

 

A hectic and stressful breaking operation, which might be hard to watch, but ultimately give you better income.

 

(If you'd like to donate your 6speed box i'd happily give it a home, and yours wheels ;) ... then just sell the rest mate :D)

andy wants a useable streetcar and hes now probably experienced that in UK 1000bhp RWD is not ideal..

 

ok if he maybe wants to do drag racing but hes only interested in street..

 

i personally would not enjoy a 1000bhp rwd street car..850 maybe tops would do me in RWD.

 

He just needs to get a turbo thats not as laggy, my car is 100% street car and spools just fine.

i have mentioned a smaller and quicker spooling turbo..

 

but you have to admit 1000bhp rwd on uk roads with street tyres and street set up is not ideal. ??

 

your input is valued too as you have had the full range 600-700-800-900-1000.

 

i personally think 850 on a rwd is about enough to shit yourself

for street use on street spec.

As long as you have a good size powerband, more bhp the better as far as I'm concerned, I don't think I'd go bigger than 76mm on a street car, maybe 80mm, I may buy a bigger turbo that's a direct swap for my 76 so I can use it on days like suprapod but certainly no bigger unless I wanted a drag only car.
