AMD do tend to overprice for everything.

take a look at their Porsche tuning range and you'll see where they really do make the money

boyced · 02-02-2006, 14:39

they have to send it away somewhere for that 450bhp thing, thats where the cost is.

mikejay · 02-02-2006, 14:41

you would have to be daft to pay that. or very very rich!

I hear they send it to someone who is more likely to put the bolts back in the engine mountings

Isn't that normal with a gearbox conversion then.

redbaron · 02-02-2006, 21:11

i never happened with mine...

**delcac** · 02-02-2006, 21:12

Anyway, I'm sure someone will be along in a mo to tell you you can have 500bhp for a lot less.

redbaron · 02-02-2006, 21:14

is that for a 4x4 conversion as well?

but as you can get 300 from a k03 why bother?
