This beasty of a turbo kinda shocked the 300 guys a bit i think. Off a 10L volvo truck :mrgreen: here it is next to a standard "small" T3 :twisted:

You'll be best off hoarding them til the Easter meet.. then bring them along, someone will buy them surely! I seriously want them sunroof parts though! Going back on Thursday, so should get your bumper and spoiler then (and Foggys backbox). Last time I asked the scrapyard owner how long it'd be there, he said a while yet as it'd only just come in!

I did mention it to him Hugh. The slight problem is that he's 250 miles away, and no-one is especially sure if a pink 340 can complete a 500 mile round trip...arf arf arf! (C'mon...he deserves it :P) I'm heading to Kent in a couple of weeks, so I'll come and get them if required. Will you give me a few £ if I get them for you DeKay? I'm not driving god knows how far extra for free, but if it helps out...!

Don't forget I want that backbox Steve (as long as its usable) :) Also don't forget the bargain exhaust sections I got you :mrgreen:

cheers
