blew third gear out.. too many third gear pulls.. but i got a new one with an LSD.. Put it together myself and out to spec.. so i'm good.. motor is in perfect condition.. but i got another set of JE's Swain Tech Coated. made a new down pipe and fabing out the rest of the exhaust system.. so if you know any one who wants to buy a p-tuning 3" exhaust i have one for sale. for a decent price too..
