Liam_D Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Turbo looks awesome dude! Did you get the rebuild sorted?? Quote
turbo Grant Posted October 29, 2012 Author Posted October 29, 2012 Still need to get a new core on there. On there so I can sort my piping out. I can't see any numbers in the core apart from 55177 will have to measure the Turbo up see what one it is. Quote
Liam_D Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Is there any tags on the centre housing? Should be like a long sequence of numbers? Quote
turbo Grant Posted October 29, 2012 Author Posted October 29, 2012 Yeah I was looking last night for the numbers. From what I could see they have been removed. The turbo has been played with by HTA so they might have removed the plate. Quote
