    I really need to stop coming on here, keeps making me want another 850R!

    Is yours an auto or manual Andy?

    Thanks, I know RT put alot of work into the car as they went along with the various bits for which I am very grateful, Marks knowledge is nothing short of brilliant too.
    What do you make of your t35 hybrid? From what I have found so far my turbo seems to give the car impressive pull as the revs increase not to mention there wasn't much lag increase over the 15g

    Thanks for your comments Andy, what are your driving these days? The car is an auto.
    Price wise I paid pretty much asking prices as detailed through the various websites for the parts bar the turbo because I know the guy's at Turbo Technics. So expect to pay in the region of £600 for the turbo which comes with a 2 year guarantee.

    Cheers Andy, the 960 is looking better but there's still ton's to do on it, I'll be glad when it handles and I can get comfy in it (sick of sliding around on the damn seats).
