how much longer is it going to take to save another $5k to get into a car for $20k.
At that point you are looking at BF turbos. |

Yes, i've owned one, no it didn't break. If money is no factor, go for the ZF (BF range) If it is, go for a BA

I love Tickford and have always been a little obsessed with the E series 302's... So I got myself one.... Then twin turbo's it! Now I have a Twin Turbo XR8...... Truly, that IMO is the be all and end all!!! Game. Set. Match..
