1st vid they need to learn how to drive and it doesn;t seem very quick to me at all.
2nd vid is slower than my blue 19 especially after the ton. |

no its not, its slow compared to my black hatch and slow compared to my blue hatch as well.
When I sort out the headgasket it will be quicker, probably back to standard.
But if that things claiming anything like 200bhp wheres it gone? There must be a leak!
I had alan, neal and JB in mine to 120 and it would have kept up with that! |

Dump valves are lush, one of my favourite sounds!
Can't really say they remind me of chavs. Not a lot of 'boy racers' have turboed cars do they?! Not a lot of 'em have engine sizes above 1 litre! The noise of a 25" exhaust connected to a 1 litre engine does however remind me of chavs |

i agree with simonds, about the chavs having not more than a 1.2 round here, and the chrome m3 mirrors and stupid exhausts, i cant see the point in doing up a small engined car. main part of me geting the 19. |

I always run turbo cars with a dump valve, depending on the management dictates wether or not its a recirculating or atmospheric one.
I like a turbo to last at least 100k of hard driving. |
