Old turbo FB magazine article
 

A friend of mine uncovered this gem of an article from his stash of an old UK weekly magazine "Motor" from 1982 and graciously scanned it for me:

I remember reading about the Elford turbo cars in some old mags. There was another UK turbo option from Bruce Garages in London, it was a Janspeed designed kit. It was called the "Motospeed", it made slightly more power @ 7 psi then the Elford with 5 psi.

Cool article. Never even heard of Elford before. That car did some haul-assin' for back then!
