As stated before that Evo is awsome and the wheels look ace.
Got anymore pics of the Astravan VXR? That also looks mint. Good work mate.

Bit of an update, got the turbo fitted on tuesday, made 475bhp.
Was pretty disappointed with that. it's going back to get mapped again from a base map in a few weeks when i get back from my holidays.
The mapper also thought the mivec wasn't working properly.
It's still alot faster then before though

i take it TT s205 is the turbo technics one yeah? engine tuner are knocking the s206 out and its proven itself at 500bhp but if youve only a base map on, im sure it will have to be corrected?

i'll post up some pics tomorrow from the detail.
yeah it's the s205, hes only mapped it to 475 for now until it goes back in to them where he'll start from scratch and hopefully hit 500 or thereabouts, he said theres still alot to come from the turbo.
