OK, I looked at it!

Just how does this thing pass MoT with that exhaust set up in the passenger cabin?

'clearly because of the incredible engineering behind:

THE EXHAUST IS BOXED INTO A CLEAR PERSPEX CASE SO IF THERES EVER A LEAK IT WONT LEAK FUMES INTO THE CAR AND KILL YOU WHILE YOUR DRIVING. IN THEORY!!!!!!

HAHA, yeah the seats and dash condition look pretty decent!

And speaking of turbocharging Ashton's car.... i think ya need to get up to date bro. Turbocharging aint cool anymore. Now we are TWINCHARGING!!!!!!! VW just announced a new engine with a sequential Super/Turbo set up. Supercharger supplies the low rev power while the turbo takes over for the high end. Bigger power with a 1.4L engine.

I think you should call SFR or powerhaus and have them mount both kits on your car! THEN, you might, just MIGHT be ready to hook up a hatch as spectacular as the ebay ad. HAHA.

Eh, just do what he did, box it off into the passenger compartment. Get some tempered plexi if the make something like that and box it in where the dashboard was...just put the turbo in there and it'll serve as the heater since you had to take it out to put all that stuff in. It'll keep your dates laps nice and warm

Also, did he paint the cones and rubbers on those speakers . I'm sure they work, but I'm thinking as muddy as the Ohio river in the springtime.

That's still too much effort. This guy went for the simplest turbo install.

beerburner.. i heard thats like 75 horse power. How do you think the 951 is so much faster than the n/a 944?

I love how he uses diamond plate to cover the vent in the euro bumper. i still cant get over the quad exhaust. I wonder which tip actually lets exhaust out! hahahah
