What's the purpose of cutting out part of the slam panel and replacing it with box section? I've noticed Stef205 has done it to. More strength in an impact?

More strength in an impact?As poodle says, In my case it's purely for clearance so I can fit the top hat of the Bosch and other things. It may be stronger but not meaningfully so. Strong enough I can stand on it.

The engine mount is one bolt... if you cannot afford to fix that then for the love of god dont turbocharge it
What are you doing about dropping the compression ratio? or are you just slapping a turbo on and carrying a head tightening kit with you at all times?
decomp plate? or thicker gasket?
or draesh right on?

Slap on a turbo, no problemo! (19-05-2015, 01:35 PM)mr_fish Wrote: decomp plate? or thicker gasket?Drash on mate. New engines are cheaper than gasket kits.

Cant be bothered to write much, fitted bonnet pins, not fallen off yet. Changed engine and gear box mount, car no longer shakes like a shitting dog at idle and is much nicer to drive.

Fitted my ebay bargain of an incorrectly listed tow bar today for something to do. Took the tow ball off as it needs a new electrics plate and the bolts were in a shocking condition, half the thread has come off with them so I'll be getting new ones. Still can't complain for a tenner. Just looking for an equally cheap trailer now.
