Re: Turbo engine conversion
I was wondering why so much of the front end has been stripped, and why I missed this thread first time round 

Cars in my care:
2021 Kia Spottage 1.6 Pez Turbo Dual Clutch Gearbox Trickery
2013 Renner Twingo - donkey work

The crumpled wing wasnt my fault, I was parked up at a mates house and their neighbour in a landrover clipped it. so it wasnt my fault.niz406 wrote:No Offence dude... but it looks like you crashed it with a turbo diesel engine and survived..... me thinks with a tuned turbo petrol you will kill yourself...Maxxy.P wrote: Out with the old Dturbo
