x2 make sure you insure it properly and if its down as a 1.3N/a on log book get it changed! but thats quiet a nice spec list, dunno how much ur rovers worth but the parts alone tally up! but still check the usual out and what dac69er said! check that link i gave too.

my MG is worth about £2200how much extra bhp do u think all those mods will give it?

Tbh i dont really know how much bhp it'll add, it'll be noticablely different to a completly stock setup! won't feel release real power untill mani's changed you got all the safety mods and up the boost!

No worries tbh mate, i'd check it over before test driving it... i test drove mine before hand and fell in love with it, didnt care about the problems he even told me it had! good luck with getting one and keep us updated!

bare in mind not much of those are performance enhancing mods.. if the engine is healthy and the turbo has been rebuilt well at standard pressure you're torque should be good but witha mild boost increase you'll see an improvement over stock.

Find out if anything has been done to the fueling side and if theres an FCD, I only ask cause a FMIC to me would mean its running above fuel cut with a fair amount of additional boost. Also a turbo rebuild would indicate additional boost.

If the bost is above 1 bar check if its running a standard mani.

my turbo died of old age. hadnt raised the boost levels at that point in time so wouldnt worry too much about that
