Mk3highline 287 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 Bolted a Rotrex supercharger to it! It's a long story which involves me getting very annoyed with the VF charger leaking oil after waiting 2 months for a belt, fellow member D11PS being a good salesman (well telling me the rotrex sounds like a low flying fighter jet) and then going over to pick up the new charger last night with Bealieboy and coming back with the charger and a hangover for Saturday morning! It's ok Dips was buying, he was feeling flush after I'd just paid the erm.....£200 for the rotrex! Nice pub by the way Dips! So jealous is that a c30?I'm in need of a bracket for the c38 good job you got s vid of how it sounds? bennyk and VR6Pete 2 Link to post Share on other sites
