My intercooler arrived today as promised by forge. :D Very pleased with it thanks forge. I went for red pipes as you dont see many cars with red pipes and goes well with red strutt brace.

i left mine in bag to stop anything getting in turbo, if you read the green guarentee paper that came with turbo it says not to get anything in there or avoid the oil drying out. hence why it came in bag. Hope you get clutch sorted. mine is at jabba when i decide which to go for lol.

Tell me about it! 16 days seems years away! I doubt your turbo will go bang fella. Jabba know what they're doing and so do TD.

Just reading the Warranty slip on the turbo and it says oil and filter must be changed when the turbo is fitted. Mine's only just been serviced about 2000 miles ago! :cry:

my oil wasnt changed that long ago either but i would want it changed anyway if i am getting new turbo fitted. that way will be clean oil running through it. i know jabba and TD are good but its a worry thats always there at back of your head that wont go away. lol cant sleep that well either. as date gets nearer time goes slower and slower ahhhhhhhhhhhh lol.

I changed my MD376 turbo myself on my leon, Changed the oil and filter. Ran the turbo for 100 miles and changed the oil + filter again. Running it currently on a jabba stage 1 custom map. It is booked in on the 17th June at Rs Tunning to have a fully custom map. You wont have any trouble with jabba there great.

Turbos dont need alot of running in as long as they have good oil, thats why they insist that its changed.

Im planning on changing my oil every 3000 miles, so purchased 20 litres from tps only £68,

Looking forward to your guys power curves.

11 days for me! 9 days til turbo fitting, 8 days til I service it!

Can you ask Jabba where my EGR replacement pipes are and why they didnt call me back? :lol:

I had sent them loads of emails but no reply, had to call in the end. think they are very busy at moment and dony have time to check email. I will ask if i remember.
