[COLOR="DarkOrchid"]Ahh.. you're going on rope power Smile Does Jen know she is going to be pulling that like crazy in the passenger seat?

Seriously, best of luck with this one - you've been off the road too often this year and we miss you [/COLOR]

dont think anything passed the intercooler but the new engine will be going in any way at some point .... when i have the energy to get up and go fit it lol

What was the piece of rubber/plastic that went through the turbo, any idea?

my supra - racestyle - 29-08-2020

yeah it was a part of the air filter , a kind of restrictor ring if you know what I mean.... was gutted when I found out what it was as it could have been avoided , but o well nothing I can do about it now
