this is what i am leaning towards to be honest, save too much messing around i guess. are there any real effects of losing the heater matrix??
cheers

As long as it has the essentials then it won't be a problem. Don't need heaters or any of that nonsense for an MOT. You could always buy one of the wee moveable demisters if need be! Do as JR has.

its not a LET mate, its only an XE.. me and my bro decided to stop messing around with our daily drivers and build a bit of a track toy. the only turbo i now own is the one in my LCR. old LET got broke 18months - two years ago now
works so much better having one for reliability and one for race tracks
