I asked the guy at the shop to do it and he said they only do turbo "packages"... I've got the idea that its simply change over actuator and re-tune etc etc....could any1 shed some light please?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd give them the turbo and your actuator and say do the upgrade to this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
