That will be great!! but honestly, been on the hunt for optimax the past few days. got caught out at peterhead then at don mouth aberdeen. finally got some at great nothern road but it was the last pump!

Your lucky! i went down to Yorkshire last week and regularly filled up with 104.9p per litre!!!!

i know, optimax has been a bit scarse lately, started to carry octane booster in the car now incase i get caught short!

I know, tried for a few days to get hold of you regarding the intercooler job. dont get much time at home so had to get it fitted before i went away again. just unfortunate you called me after i had booked it in. No they didnt sort me out with a new engine, didnt even say sorry and still took my money for the mapping time! Only thing they offered me was VAT discount on the parts to fix the engine - they thought they had just blown the head gasket! you live and learn! cheers herbie

Herbie - I thought you used Wallace Per4mance? Something happen that put you off? Russell HAHA very funny lol. I wont be using Wallace P again after they melted my piston.

I havent used him for mapping yet, but all the other work has been spot on. Very helpfull knoweable guy. he got me up and running again, fitted my new engine etc.

Same here, still to see andy f 7. herbie

Thats great news mate. Its only right that the garage you bought the car from helped you out. Yeah Simons a good bloke. Youve probably seen my car sitting there lol. Im sure you'l have your car back soon

whats the best way to run in a new engine??? take it easy or drive it hard right away? have a look at this..... http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

Yip Afterburner for me too!! Deep and Throaty []

Yeah very common scam, you had a lucky escape. Are the Police doing anything about it? Good luck with a sale m8.

I managed 305 lb/ft on my MY00 UK Impreza with.... Tek 2 ECU £500 Full decat exhaust £300 gas flowed header £220 Another remap to 1.5 bar £350 Large TMIC £200 Ive spent £350 on a TD05 turbo (still to fit) Then another remap will be around £200 I think its been worth it so far...its totally changed the car so far.

I know...its very well made too and dwarfs my present cooler!

So you must have saved up enough cash for the sex change op then. Just kiddin mate! Hope all goes well.

3 weeks without the scoob must be torture!

Good thinking batman...may leave that till next month. Stuff is getting fitted on Monday. The TD05 turbo will go on by splitting the turbo thats on the car at the moment. Yes it will be getting remapped too. That intercooler was a steal! Kit + BOV and delivery from the USA and only cost £170 hehe Cheers.

Lol, i'll make it fit! The cooler is for a MY02 wrx so im sure it will fit. Will probably have to make a few modifications.

Gun metal!![]

Cant wait to get these bad boys on...... TD05 turbo - will this fit straight on to a MY00 classic? Guess how much I got that brand new intercooler kit for! hehe

Quite like the 1st pic. Last pic is nice too.

Hello matey! Welcome. Once again, very nice motor you have.

Snap! Yeah I have one too, amazing sound i must admit.

Turbo is now in the post, and Paul has sent his appologies on the delay. No harm done. Thanks

What makes it worse, I get responses saying "sorry been off work with the flu, i'll see to posting the turbo out today" !!!

Thanks. I'll post in the Essex scoobies list if i get nowhere on the phone with them tomorrow.
