Get it all from john ashley personally mate, he's sorted! I think I may get my replacement system done by him unless I go down forced induction route next year.

Your prob regret going for a F13 if you find one (Although they are piss easy to find? Its WR that are hard to find?), Go for a F15 CR at least.
