i have been reading alot the past couple weeks about doing the turbo but there is one thing that is REALY STARTING to put me doing it is that they dont last very long before having to pump more mony into them for re-build. i spoke to my machanic on friday and he has also said to me that IF i am going to do it that it aint gonna last long

I think differently to everyone else tbh, I dont think you should get rid of the Mango Sax!
If you want a faster engine then buy a VTR lump and fit it to the Mango! would be a shame to see it go to be honest and they are quite rare!
You would be one of few people with a VTR mango! dont know anyone off the top of my head with one!
Sorry the mango has grown on me!
