Re: Yokohama AD08s

I run them all round on my turbo, got nearly 8k out of the rears, that's with several hard launches and a few doughnuts. Fronts are on nearly 10k with a little while left on them. Rubbish in the snow though! haha!

It does go quite well, spent a small fortune fixing all the little problems with it though.

Re: CT26 in a rev3??

Yeah it doesn't hold boost at the upper end of the rev range. Looks like I need to try and get hold of CT20b. What's the going rate for a good one of those? Is the CT26 worth anything or should it just be resigned to a fancy desk ornament?

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Japspeed intercooler.

Cheers. Was there any modifications needed to fit it? Or was it direct bolt on like it says, just requiring a bit of a fiddle?
