Got our turbo mini on the road last week. It's a standard metro turbo engine with an rs intercooler and bailey dump valve. Only running it on the standard 4.5psi at the moment.

Superb! That is the kind of look I am aiming for with mine, make it look as standard as possible from the outside!!!

Cheers.

Standard looking was the plan. I might change the raised bonnet for an era vent at some point, not sure.

Had to change the old wheels with the 145 woosungs as they were a bit scary *smiley*

Aah alas no, I have experienced Woosungs, Nankangs, and Chenshangs.

All were as cr@p as you would expect.......


Edit>

I would just like to make it clear before I get slagged off that these tyres all came on cars I bought, I have never and would never buy tyres like this myself........!!!

One thing that i found out about nankangs is that they are owned by yokohama, and use all the discontinued tread patterns. My Dad went down the tire place and had a set of A529s put on his Saab turbo, it was only when he parked up at home that i noticed it!!!

The woosungs were excellent ditchfinders *laughing*

There was a pair of Toyos on the rear and I don't think they make them in that size anymore *oh well*
