Welcome Alan, that looks very tidy. How long have you owned it and is it original or restored?

Andy

This is mine, 1989 2.7, engine swapped at 250 000+, Friday evening ebay impulse purchase - like the interior!
Had it about a year. Last MOT cost a bulb, 3 copper washers and a couple of hours!

Hi Keith, I hadn't realised you had the maroon interior - looks fantastic.

You'll also have to tell us how you managed to get 308bhp from your turbo, or was that how it came?

Hi mate, I know the interior is a little "80's" but I love it, and the condition is fantastic, no ware to any seat bolsters and all electrics within perfectly, and when in painted the car in its new colour it will really set the interior off ;)

As for the power, well it actually made 311.2bhp and 322lbsft but I dont seem to have that graph..

Its a 220bhp car and ran terribly when I bought it, I think the wgfv had failed as it was i making the mechanicalboost of the wg spring. So I parked it up at the workshop and bought the following:
K26#8 turbo (250bhp turbo)
3bar fpr
Promax stg 1 chips
Boost enhancer
Wastegate shims (not fitted)
Forge recirc valve (bov)
Green cotton induction kit

Took it for its mot friday, failed on emissions so played with the afm, then called up charlie @ surrey rolling road and took it down yesterday to get the afr's checked and 311bhp is what it made...
