I was browsing in Smiths, when I saw this car, I noticed that it was turbo charged, from Norway, and had some form of injection (bottom left of main photo). That'll be a good read I thought.

It is a MPI running Autronic injection. I dont realy know much about this car. I have been reading about it in another magazine, but the article was rubbish :(

I wish mags would get facts and figs right as well as a nice story for the readers as well as the owner, I do understand that a good story is hard some times, IE, someone may have just bought the car or owned it a while but never worked on it ect, ect. It just gets embarrassing for all when its not right. When i do a write up (heaven forbid) i always pass it onto the owner to make sure it's ok and get them to sort out any errors before sending it on to the mags.

Bloo-y hell he is made with a STD box and diff, my diff when standard would only last a month or 2, and that was with power way under 200 mark.

vegar, I won't tell you my new claim then. I know he got a lot of power in that car, but I dont like the "ca 250 hp"  As mentioned, the man is working for TS Racing (you may have seen TS's pink Audi 1.8T Estate a couple of years ago) so I know the man knows his way around a turbo :)

Have heard of mini cyclinder heads being modifyed having 4 inlet ports by halfing the original two, by the looks of the inlet manifold could this be what the man has done, but may produce a more torquey engine. Would like to see it as it looks a nice tidy car |

Not keen on the wasted space infront of the inlet and behind the rocker cover.
