Workshops closing down?
Hi Steve
I spoke to Adrian Corvisy the owner of Powertune today and i can assure you there is no way Powertune is closing its workshop.

Glad to hear it Guy. I want to get one of your slat roof racks when the budget allows.
I hope the rumour is not true about the workshop part of your op. though.

have been working on the APR website due up in 2 weeks, with all the new stuff including 450hp S4 Audi program, 550hp 996 twin turbo Porsche program,
and of course the Garrett turbo conversions for the New Beetle's Golfs & Passats netting 235kw (300+ HP). www.goapr.com
Have an apointment with our web man on Wednesday to update our wrecking side of things, and to put all the new Flat 4 stuff up on line with prices.
Just going to concentrate more on the parts selling, but still do all the reconditioned parts.
Also we have a new engine conversion kit for the 1.9 & 2.1 transporters using current model T4 4cylinder motors, or Golf 1.8 turbo 20 valve motors
- pictures in a day or so.....
Still plenty going on

15 x 5.5" only in the 4 stud - you can run a 195/60 15 happily (as on our racecar) depending on guard clearance.
The 5 lug is now available in 5.5" & 6.5"
All are standard VW patterns.
Is it your shout at the Nats? if it is I will probably come down... |

Re. VW workshops closing - what's the story with Bug Parts/VW King on Punchbowl Road? I haven't been in to see Moische for a few months.
The For Auction sign is still out the front.
