Car or engine?

I would suggest that an intercooler, mapped ignition and 10psi boot would make it a lot better.

If you are going to be rebuilding the engine then there is significant scope for improvement depending on your budget.

The search feature on this forum is excellent and will answer pretty much any question you have about turbo a-series tuning.

"Turbo Phil from TurboMinis" website http://www.turbo-mini.com is also a good resource especially if you are a beginner.

Lastly you will get more replies/help if you write in proper English and not "text speak" which is somewhat frowned upon on this forum.

How about-

Oh! OK! Well I'm new to all this and only 17, so only looking for some help.

I'm sure you can do it with a little effort.

There is loads of info on this site, and lots of helpful people, so long as you are willing to use the search sensibly and then post direct questions you will get on fine.

Well if you can't be arsed to spell properly, you will find that on this forum, people will not be arsed to answer any questions you may have. So really it is up to you, it makes no odds to me or anyone else on here either way.

I think you're all being a little unfair, especially Tom who was arguing exactly the opposite attitude to new mwmbers the other week.

In his first post he's missed an apostrophe and an 'e' in 'I've' and an a in thanks.

minimadturboman said all that was needed, and he said he understood.

Jesus!

I'm sorry Wil but I don't think that is fair at all.

My first two replies I was trying to steer the lad in the right direction to be able to get on here, when he clearly couldn't be bothered then I left my final post, along the lines of, its down to you, no skin off my nose.
