[lilrich_1991]

Thank you sean for your comment made me feel abit better right Ive spent the whole night playing with Photoshop and my cars taking a new direction I'm not going to give the game away completely but its a risky new color scheme that's going to make the car even more marmite then it already is oh and I've also decided since I'm the one who owns the car and gets the pleasure of driving it everyday I'm doing things my way don't like it don't look at it simples

 

[lilrich_1991]

Can anyone in the Tamworth/midlands area please recommend a half decent tuner with rolling road and I also need a company who can powdercoat wheels I also need a body shop that's fairly cheap but will do a good job thanks for the help in advance

 

[Dan-VXR]

MPG in middlewich. Only around an hour away

 

[TomTheYorkshireMan]

do what you want to your own car, looks nice

 

[lilrich_1991]

had a quick chat with a local turbo specialist and he's now been tasked with creating me a hybrid turbo and a new manifold to run bigger boost should be interesting lol ive also ordered all forged engine internals and custom cams cant remember exact spec but theyre getting machined specially for my little asbo contemplating a few different color schemes atm well see what TFS does for my inspiration hopefully next week will be a big update

 

[Dan-VXR]

What have you got a list of what you ordered?

What BHP/Stage will you be at?

Wouldn't bother with KO3 hybrid. Go KO4/KO6 or a garrett if you have the cash

 

[lilrich_1991]

It's a garret hybrid I've ordered a 'pack' from a company that's doing my rebuild I dont want to say what I've got incase it's wrong but with everything ill be running a safe 275BHP until I get a LSD and big brake kit then ill chase more lol
