    The engine bay is a state! I think the description has been written by a half whit!

    the car has had alot of money spent on it to make it like it is consisting of:
    * forged engine
    * forged pistons These were fitted after the forged engine
    * uprated gaskets I put two head gaskets on to lower compression
    * kent cams (car sounds bobbly but thats to do with the cams nothing wrong) Car sounds like Mr. Blobby? Also, must have a spare in the boot because cams is plural?
    * uprated turbo (td03)
    * bigger front mount intercooler
    * stage 2 super chip Raises the limiter from 8,500rpm that the stage1 has to 9,500 which you need for stage 2.
    * re-mapped So I don't get lost
    * turbo boost gaugeTurbo boooost
    * turbo timer (digital) Couldnt understand the analogue one
    * lowered 60mm (i am led to believe) not too stiff Shockers are nackerd
    * bailey dump valve (loud) specially when i turn the speaker up to max!
    * waste gate Found it in next doors garden
    * full pipercross exhaust systemThe black foam melted though
    * uprated brakes Black diamond Yo!!
    * morette lights (in black with HID's) Thats a lie, didnt show you a picture of them so you will believe me
    * push button start Bit complicated, you gotta push the button on the key before you get in the car and put the key in the ignition
    * uprated door speakers (components with tweeters) I chose a canary
    all of this i have reciepts for and paper work which i forgot to get off last owner so he is sending them through the post but you are more than welcome to inspect the car.

    The car has TAX untill april next year i think and also MOT until May next year.

    All four tyres have good tread on them.

    This punto is NOT for the faint hearted as it realy is the fastest small car i have ever driven it leaves type r's standing corsa vxr's keeps up with standard imprezas which are 280bhp standard! I've raped the car all over the country an the cars got 4 markers on it.

    I will be very sad to see this car go as i have fallen in love with it and its emense power, I've wound the boost up to 35 psi, selling it before the head cracks and the valves are spat out the bonnet.
