Martin just read your post dead engine, dont give up! 5 years hard graft deserves more than a 5 minute decision, give it till after Christmas. I have a spare engine that I would be happy donate parts or you could ebay a donor engine as no one wants them now. I would be happy to come and lend you a hand the first 2 weeks of jan. If I cant change your mind after Christmas Ill be the first in the que to buy a load of parts, esp that remaped ecu.

have a nice Christmas john

Right I'll be starting to break this after the weekend so let me know what parts you want. I'll put prices up later.

At the moment the injectors are spoken for.

Sad times

Let the vultures begin their work...

Boost pipework and exhaust?

3" Downpipe has an angled flange td04 fitment reducing to 2.5", it's a GWE one of a v70 t5 that we altered to fit. Exhaust is just a 2.5" standard system with no cat so not worth selling on. I would want £150 for the downpipe or £225 with turbine housing and adapted exhaust manifold.

Boost pipes are really only useful if you have the turbo and intercooler as a set and that will be in the region of £475.

Sorry to hear this Martin, I'm absolutely gutted for you!

Only for the fact that my V is an unreliable pig, I'd take some bits of you for sure.
