First post!

Hello,

I am 38 years old (almost 40...oh noooooooo) and owner of a 5 GT Turbo since 17 years.

My first car was a 88' Phase 2 red one. I owned this car during 5 years as I give it to my brother after having bought a Renault Clio 16S.

I bought my second GT Turbo 10 years ago. This is the car I drive today.

So, it's a end of 87' Phase 2. As the engine was wrecked when I bought it, I decided to do some modifications...(forged internals, big valves head, hybrid turbo T28...)

Engine before rebuilding :

After this was how this car looked after that:

I don't even put 30psi into my tyre's let alone the engine. :D

Bet it surprises a few people with such a standard look to your car at so much boost. :burnrubber:

Lol, yes. Nobody believes that the C1J can support more than 20 PSI ....
