First mini turbo to get in the 12's & site perv

Herefordshire

Yeah he redrilled the wheels I do believe

The wellers have flat faces so you can drill them anywhere I think

Then it looks like he just made them the same as the std holes so you can reuse the same nuts

I know of a few people that have re-drilled flanges.
