    So my 93 has no real power up till 3K rpm and then the big 'un kicks in and then it kicks hard. I'm guessing the small turbo is not working ... but why ? To start off, the small turbo is up high, big turbo down low ... right ? First off there are no fault codes logged. I can find no boost...

    My wife can't afford to keep her Ruby. It's showing signs of age but I'm sure it will appeal to a collector. It's far to good to scrap. She's had it for about 10 years and it's never broken down in that time apart from a failed fuel hose iirc. I've no idea of it's value but know that she wants...

The vehicle is a 2006 93 aero with a smaller than usual dash, can smaller vents be bought? As this has peeved me off somewhat. I personally feel the car...
