Homo? No thanks
Facebook? No thanks
Polish it? Needs more than that lol
Never use it? I can't wait to get it back got loads of trips planned lol

It's an awesome build if I must say so myself. All brand new parts and no expense spared at all.

No having a tantrum at all lol just thought members on here would appreciate a quality engine build and what's involved.

I'm over the moon with the customer service by MG and the extra mile they going for me on this build. Will be a very strong engine once complete. :D

It's costly so be prepared for that. But on the other hand well worth it if your going for big power.

Yeah Si opened my eyes to the cost of these builds and he's doing it himself :wtf:

I wouldn't want more than 450/450 etc tbh, would just want a fast spool :twisted:

Firstly I just like to say Thank you to MAT, DAVE, STEVE and everyone else who was involved in the Re-built engine, for example Tim radley @ race developments.

My engine had 4 oil changes 250,500,750,1000 miles

After every engine oil change the tone of the engine was getting better and better.

Today was the final oil change and Re-map, result:

AWESOME :eek:

I could not believe that the same turbo (IX 80 series) produced so much power/torque. I was shocked to say the least, Dave knew as I had a smile from ear to ear :lol: Now your maybe thinking it cant be much quicker than before IT simply is I cant believe it myself.

Now this just shows that the dirty build it had previously was down on power and all sorts of problems.

Power wise it feels as quick if not quicker than my mates 996 TT 450BHP.

Roll on the blouch which will be soon

Il add a spec list as soon as I get it.

MAT DAVE STEVE nice one

Thanks lads you definitely do go the extra mile and credit where its due for turning my car into a machine

:D:D:D:D:D:D:

Glad your happy with it fella, those 80 series turbos are pretty useful!
