the guy that built it used a cheap ebay turbo that doesn't boost, nothing to compensate for the fueling and claimed it to be 200bhp. It's now broken. I don't think anymore needs to be said...
*edit, the fact the car can run a standard clutch without slipping proved enough that it wasn't producing any amount of power especially not 200bhp. I'd be VERY suprised if it dyno'd above 160bhp.

its a bit annoying for me really, there are so many badly bodged turbo conversions on 106's and saxo's making sweet fa power that when someone like myself comes to sell a properly boosted one with proper management and mapped by a proffesional it makes it difficult to sell because people are too suspicious of them.

If that's a VTS, then where's the passenger airbag + electric mirrors?

Nah some guys to run different cams as long as they're not hugely wild, big valve overlap is the no no (infect really any) with boost as blow by isn't great.

Another point to add is that the car is originally a VTR with a VTS conversion therefore it would be up to the new owner to declare this as it's still a VTR on the v5.
