Renault 5 Turbo - James S - 30-01-2019

Couple of pics of my mates R5 turbo. Forged internals, most of the work done himself. Its not asthetically pleasing on the eye, but my god does it go quickly. Running 220bhp when I went out in it this weekend on reduced boost while he sorts a sensor problem. LOL!
very quick before its even hit boost.
Anyway, not jap, but certainly good fun!

these were mad cars in their time, my brother had apearl white one great colour.
Only problem you had when driving it was you needed the whole road :laugh: as the thing would be pulling so bad when you put the foot to the metal.
