Cool cheers My cars spot on now after some very hefty bills in the few months I've owned it lol but I have a sheered bolt on my exhaust manifold, not sure how easy it's going to be to get out but it's looking like it's stuck in the actual head so could be messy! My uncles a master tech for Cambridge Volvo (you probably heard of it) and has recommended I leave it as some of them are head off jobs and can be a b*tch to do.

To be fair I "only" want 270-300bhp and to be fair with NA cams, wind up a 16T with an S14 actuator, VXR injectors, 3" Straight through exhaust and a MTE remap i'll get it.

The 16T from a T5 will push out 270 bhp
That looks amazing. I want that in my life lol Whats the spec on that??

I can say this as I lived there for 18 years and now only live 20 mins away in Portchester which is rough as sin!
Haha, yep, I'm not technically in waterlooville, I'm in a tiny village about 3 miles out, so yes, even more full of false teeth and hips. There's a few hotties my age around here though...lol

It's a nice place to live I have to admit.

B*gger all to do around here though.

As I kid, you either throw pebbles in one of several ponds, play in streams or sit on a bus for an hour or so to get to the nearest city lol.
