Default Hello, i bought gazterrano's one

Hi to all.

I joined looking to buy and quickly took gazterrano's one.
About a 600 mile round trip in all but got to see both Harrogate and York on the way so had a great weekend.
Of all the strange reasons to want one of these, i MOT'd one about a month ago. Our brake rollers can't accomodate 4wd's so i had to road test it and use the decellerometer. I was instantly hooked!

A week on i'm still loving it but think i did some damage on the way home.
Blitzed to the redline on the way up a hill and a persistent whistle now follows whenever the turbo is on boost.
I would say it's a boost leak that i'm still trying to trace.
Had the Intercooler off and there's no appreciable damage or oily deposits where there might be a pinhole so next port of call is the inlet manifold/throttle body gaskets. Are these known problems?

Anyway, thanks to Gary for the terrano and i'll start a thread in the projects section if you have one.

Cheers
