Was that the Castle in 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang'? That'll test the knowledge of the young'uns.
So Darwin, what is it really? Looks a bit VR to me....

Removing the turbo isn't all that difficult. Just get manuals, get tools, and go at it carefully.

Ha, no wonder I recognised it! Did you get it from a lister or Ebay? If it's a true S5 you will find it a bit big for a 2.5L, especially with stock gearing.

Darwin, You are going to love this turbo. The turbo was custom built to meet Darwin's requirements.
Darwin, add to your list of modifications: VERY sticky tires

Nope. Bought it straight from the source brand new. Chris White will be making my 3.1L engine.

If the turbo can be fit under the stock manifold, it's never too big!
