Just got my car back from a few bits n bobs:

1. Timing Belt
2. Tensioner Pulley
3. 52mm Boost Gauge
4. Radio Band Expander
5. Fitment of Simota Induction kit & Heat Shield

Got this all done for £444

(The belt alone was £70 from Mitsu and the gauge was £70 too)

Not bad in my opinion..

Already noticed the car to be a lot smoother, not that it wasnt before. Marc at The Garage thought that the previous timing belt was one tooth out.

Anyways..

Thought id pass on the good word of this garage..

Thats a great price, do they do home visits albeit 400 miles away. can you feel any difference with the simota induction kit, and what is 52mm boost gauge for :huh2:

Havnt noticed much difference with the simota, quieter at idle yes..

It needs more work on the air intake though... the battery is in the way at the moment...

The boost guage? Just a cosmetic add-on.. its very nice and blends in well tho

Sorry m8, my mistake.. the Gauage was from the garage, not a main dealer.

I'll have pics anyway soon.
