Doesn't have the looks of the ZS, but I'm sure it'll be quite a bit faster. All the best with it.

are you not getting heat soak with that filter, as turbo engine's run very very hot. my astra turbo lost around 6bhp on the rollers with a open cone filter on over the standard air box

:) despite the skoda badge, its all VW/Audi parts, very solidly built from inside, no rattles or anything inside.
very reasonably priced too imo thats why i was drawn towards them

you got rid of the prelude?

my mate had a golf gti, same engine, he had a carbonia induction kit on it, it was very good, took it from a cold fed area, very nice car mate would consider one myself, love those seats!

nice car , i drove the mk2 2.0t and it was superb.
Your engine has somne serious potential too if you ever desire some more power, i bet its about 215 bhp as is.
