Turbo smoke

[Turbo Joe]

That is a very good point. RAC/AA it is then.

I was on the way to the blackwall tunnel racing an evo when mine went. Managed to limp back home, smoke coming from the exhaust was ridiculous, came into the car through every gap possible even at higher speeds. Parts and labour came to around roughly 3k. Sourced turbos from the states, cost around £1,200 including import duty, £300 cheaper than here. You can still drive the car when the turbos go but not very fast and be prepared to smoke out the whole block.

hold on a minute..are you saying that your not running K03's anymore..
so all this talk of racing me with just a SKN remap is a lie...??

[Turbo Joe]

The turbos are the only things changed Woody, not the map. I've not got a remap yet so I'm still SKN. I see you need a change of trousers there mate, oh well accidents will happen.

[s4woody]

i dont wear trousers..still in shorts..ya see all along you kept the K04's quiet..worried that the K03's weren't up to it so you had to change them out...i,d pray even harder now cos ya man will no you've told porkie,s and mite not forgive you this time...
as for accidents..i,ll leave that to others...see you at the starting line...

[Turbo Joe]

Errr no, I couldn't have kept the KO4s quiet after I blazed it on the forum that my turbos blew(check post under my name around June last year). You must have been hiding mate, no porkies at all.

You are actually fortunate that I don't have the KO3s for the quicker spool up, how I would have embarassed you off the line with a launch that would have had you shook, still the KO4s are good enough. Ill carry some nappies with me and some wipes for you and your car when I'm finished dealing with the case. Best get some Cravendale for your car mate, remember its filtered.

Any what flavour of KO4 did you go for?

Std ones I think, are there any others then?

Please stand behind the yellow line mate or your car might get rattled to bits from the backdraft.

You two should get a room!

[Turbo Joe]

He'll be needing room for recovery after the V6 beast deals with V8.

[Turbo Joe]

Poor Woody, is the thought of being destroyed by a car that you once owned that stressful? Your a trader though so you can get spare parts in advance knowing that you'll get smoked. Got milk sir?

i never owned a K04'd car so that remark is pointless..do you really think my car will self destruct..oh ye of little faith...thats what happens when you work for TFL..you boss is a crook and your all tought to talk <beep> and wallow in it...
practice your starts cos if you get it wrong i,ll wait for you to catch up...hate to see a grown man cry...whizz BANG..ooops more turbo's...

[Turbo Joe]

I wasn't talking about a S4 that was KO4'd, I was just referring to and S4 period. I'm gonna back off because I see the stress is getting to you. As you said, see you on the starting line, whenever you are ready slowpoke!

[Turbo Joe]

He's blowing gasgets already and we aren't even on the road yet.
