my mate just sold his EVO 8.  He had it running about 400Hp,

He said he could deal with the fuel economy, but paying 300-400 for a service every 3-4 months was killing him, all the money he never spent each month went into the servicing and running costs for the car.  He's just bought a 330i instead

Do you live in Malton? Can't believe that place has a car show.

Yes you did numbnuts, we have spoken before about you buying a 2.0FSi 4x4 and putting a K04 etc into it as well as swapping out the vRS bits.

Its FSi, not TFSi so you would also have to swap the turbo.

I dont think it would be too hard to just get a rear diff with frame, gearbox and prop and just make the vRS into a 4WD.

If I keep mine for a while then it will go 4WD.
