Is200 Turbo


Recommended Posts

Hi guys well its been a while coming but its finally here.

Thanks to Gav for the turbo kit i have finally got my self a Turbo kit, it arrived a few weeks ago, and some more bits and bobs arrvied today from a cheap guy off eBay.

Unfortunatly not fitting it till Feb due to insurance, but im so excited i could burst trying to save for internal, but i think the fitting cost is SOOOO high thats what going to cripple me that and the ECU ahhahah.
