If anyone is going to visit there, I'd really appreciate a picture of the door sill sticker - the one showing factory recommended tire pressure

i enquired about saving this myself, they say;
This vehicle can be re-sold if you wish.
The car has been depolluted though. You would need to visit the yard to check it out and negotiate. Remember you need safety footwear and hi viz.
It isn’t available for individual parts.

Ah damn that's annoying, could you close this thread then it's in the wrong place

ill get it moved into the for sale thread as it would be good for saving

It's a UKDM h22a8 engine so 197 bhp and good for more power if someone wants to remap it

Slightly off topic question Drax. How much power can be gained by remapping a stock a8?

it has the same high compression 11:1 pistons as you get in the H22a7 engine, plus the cams are either identical or very nearly so you'd at a guess get it up to 220bhp, maybe 225/230 if lucky, but if you swapped the inlet manifold for a H22a7 one i would guess you'd be more likely to get 230-240. some of this is down to how well the engine has been maintained, and the tuner plus the ECU you use with as well.

I've got one in mine but of course I can't upload it. Because uploading pictures directly to a website would be too easy.

Just to be sure, this is for 17 inch rims? 215/45/17 tyres?
