My New Turbo

[mr2nut123]

Turbo insurance is a stinger but its worth every penny the grin you get :D

Standard apart from steering wheel and front clears. Also sprayed the alloys black to make it look a bit more aggressive. I think it really suits the car but ive had mixed opinions so far ;)

Sign up for the plus points card online at www.shell.co.uk .... they will send one out to you... its blue n silver.... then if you use it 3 times to fill up at Shell (obviously) with optimax.. they should offer to 'upgrade' you to the optimax card

i was actually takin the ***** cos its so **** expensive but if there is such thing ill get one ordered. cheers :D

yep m8, im sure it'l pass no probs.

Can't fault her to be honest. Apart from the facts she's no a t-bar, and i reckon the turbo's fubarred on her cos she feels like she doesnt even hav one, hehe

about the optimax card...

are both card linked to the same points system? and are there any advantages to usin it?

i.e. i've still used my normal card cos the optimax one is sat around in my bedroom somewhere!

You can use the optimax card when you fill up with normal unleaded and diesel too. You only get the bonus points when filling with optimax though. More choice of rewards with optimax card, like experience days (rally driving, white water rafting etc). You also get to choose from a selection of Ferrari merchandise. I got a nice Ferrari jacket after spending about £6k on Optimax! :D

The car looks great mate - one problem tho - the standard wheels look pants on MR2's - keep the car stock and get some Jap style wheels on it.

Awesome!

[Tabulous]

Nice motor, black with black wheels is the dogs.........

[Jinxed]

well i AM a newbie to mr2 and turbos so YAY lol :D but .... big but.... turbo on bend when nice warm day can be quite fun and 2 does have really nice balancing and grip with good tyres so it definately isnt same league as wet bend and turbo unsafeness :) hey im new forgive me lol and i think my internal 'this behaviour is unsafe' mechanism is broke :P rofl
