speedysmartypants 0 Posted September 9, 2008 so you're going turbo instead then? thought u had already bought a rotrex? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedysmartypants 0 Posted September 9, 2008 or bi-turbo maybe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted September 9, 2008 so you're going turbo instead then? thought u had already bought a rotrex? yeh i had bought a C30-94 for the 12v, but TTS had it straight back off me. i think a single GT3582 will be plenty for the R32 :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ziderapple 0 Posted September 9, 2008 The R32 will be plenty for you n/a! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
