Saw today a S3 turbo esprit May of not been a turbo one, on trade plates with the split rims with gold centres (Think they are BBS ones) The colour was I think vulcan Grey (which I though they only did on the Stevens cars) or a dark green or maybe a dark grey. It was gone in a instance. He was really hammering it ( hope it wasn't a customer's car lol) Anyway sounded really nice and looked very tidy. Sorry no pic as was driving.

89 carb turbo rough running cold

If your still having issues the best thing i can recommend is to check if you have the restrictor fitted inline of the pipe to the distributor if not you may be over pressuring the advance timing i think it should be 20º its only for increased driveablity untill warm, if you by pass the pipe from the TIV valve to the 4 way adaptor as pictured. Then it will only run at 10º BTDC should make the car drive less iffy. Good luck. -
