Hi
I have been looking at this on ebay and was wondering the following!
1) is it worth fitting this to my FB or is there a better alternative bearing in mind I dont want to overboost the engine?
2) does anyone have any suggestions of a shipper to collect from manchester?
Cheers

3) how far do you want to go to outbid me?!
I thought you would like this Ian. Have you spoke to him re- the body kit.
Courier i would use is palletways. But looking at it, it is a lot of work and you really need to pick up and inspect it.. I think you would be best to fit a T11 motor in your fb tbh.

Yes, I spoke to Dave the seller more or less as soon as he listed it.
He won\'t ship it, full stop, it\'s collection only.
The body kit is complete but the front spoiler, which is the part I really wanted, needs a lot of work apparently and has bits missing.
My project car is going to get a 13b with mappable efi but I wouldn\'t mind the elford setup for my current road car plus it\'s only an hour from me.
Thing is though, last year, 2 complete elford turbo cars sold on ebay for less than 200 quid,
this one sold for about £200

I was tempted by both but just couldn\'t be bothered to fetch them, one from Essex, one from Plymouth.
Wish i had seen them. Love the colour on the second car. Still i love a 3rotor fb.

What makes you think its a two horse race !
Quote from: myatt1972;698741What makes you think its a two horse race !
Cause we all know that you\'ve already got one!
Unless you\'re turning into some sort of Bond villian hell bent on world domination of the antique Elford parts market!
I\'m staying out of this one, now play fairly boys .....................
who won then?£200...
ah elford.
I have a set of elford alloys with tyres if anyone is interested...
Or even a one horse race! manchester was simply to far and I dont know enough to know if the parts were any good!
Did you win Ian.

Hi Ian,
I didnt want to spam your new thread but is there any chance would you sell the double s stainless exhaust for a 12a please since your replacing it with the elford unit? My exhaust is a lot knackered :(
will be watching your other conversion thread closely! :)
Are you after a set of elford turbo wheels?
thanks
Jon

Jon,
it may be a while before I take it off the car cause I\'m going to get all the new bits ready first but when I\'ve removed it, I\'ll give you 1st option on it.
It\'d be nice to have a set of the Elford ( wolfrace) wheels but they won\'t go onto my s3, different centres.
Still be nice to have in stock though
Thats very kind, thanks!
Just let me know when its ready :)
Forgot about the pcd difference with the s3 wheels :( ah well
