Ahh, same here mate. My car let go a little while after I got it back, but went through the block, was quite an expensive exercise. MPS Garage did my rebuild and now it's running fine on the stock turbo.
Better to replace the rods now rather than later, cause if you drive it on bent rods, you'll do what i did!
You do realise Alan, your car can handle alot more now. Like massive Power :-)
Correct me if i'm wrong, but you will be one of the few MPS 3's with a re-built bottom end!
Anyone else have a strong bottom end on here? Car's i'm referring to !
For everyone else, if you get a tick that is increasing with speed when the reves go up. You have a bent rod! I ignored it and BOOM! If I picked it up earlier and wasn't in a rush to get to that meeting, it could have saved my block, crank etc....
