Best of all however after reading into his spec is the results. Running a 18T, FMIC, RIP Kit, Full stage 0 inc IPD igntion, MSD coil and forge actuator... total boost 20psi on stock internals and look at this slip!!!

Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong
Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....

really happy for you em, looks like youve dropped on a cracking deal there, well done done mate.
with ref to the turbo, my R (dec 97, same as yours) v70r only has a 16t with whites, and 280 front discs, so i think your gonna be happy that you didnt get shut of the 18t, told you it was meant to be mate.

Cheers for that mate, I was unsure whether they were whites or blues fitted. I know it will be a 16T for certain which is an excellent start I guess.
Assuming it is ex police there may well be 302's already fitted, if not I still have the discs and carriers for the 302 conversion in the garage. As Liams R reg S70R is straight flange I assume a T5 of the same era will be too.
I know!
It amazes me how these yanks manage these times? Why ever can the likes of Frankie and others never break the 14's? Its all there, makes no sense.

Assume what Liam? If reffering to the brakes not fussed either way as I have a set spare. I assume its basic SE spec and anything beyond is a Bonus, I do know the police specs had uprated firmer suspension though.
Cheers TC, definately worth a punt. Need to stop thinking about mods and get the thing back now!!!
