not bad for a young lad!
had a guy from nederlands come over to fit the doors and bits off an Audi TT for the t3 turbo conversion
fully veilside kit, all alpine audio, touchscreen sat nav, engine control device thing in ashtray, push button start from a s2000, full aftermarket computer set up behind flip out TV, 18s, boost gague in air vent, sports cluth, too much to list
got the full kit fitted by toyota before he even bought the car!! cost him a small fortune so far
love it, very fast and smooth, 210bhp at the moment looking at 280 this year once he knows engine is running turbo ok

very nice, don't like the doors but the kit is nice and the turbo conversion sounds good, surely would have been cheaper to purchase an off the shelf turbo kit though?? few companies in the us/japan make them for the 1.8 vvti engine

the off the shelf jobbies are made for LEFT hand drive cars from USA, europe etc
they dont fit on UK cars due to where the steering column is he said
2nd one in UK to have it done, he wanted to be first but his mate went first and hes glad he didnt cos it cost him 7.5k to get it running!!!
