From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

Thanks to John Felstead taking the **** on 22b... http://bbs.22b.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/001294.html
I had to nick this one..

How long until TOTB?
Yeah, 2 glued together... on each side. So a gasket on each side of that combined spacer.... = 2 of 2 is 4 gaskets!
But if each of the 2 gaskets on each side had a gasket between manifold - spacer - spacer - head, it would need 3 gaskets a side... 6 gaskets!
So, sticking the spacers together means less expensive gaskets used ...
Just get the big hammer on those headers to "ease" them into place...

Apologies 
Absolutely not a **** take.
Poorly worded comment
I've been glued to this thread from the start and was gutted for you when it broke at TOTB.
I was asking for some photos of the car since the fire as i was wondering what sort of damage has been caused.

that wont crack either.. its a filler used for bumper repair.. http://www.u-pol.com/countries/en/do...bumperfill.pdf
(there is fibreglass behind the cracks) its also been plastic welded..
I also bought some sikaflex last night to mount the splitter to the bumper along with std issue screws
2K Filler Primer will cover most things.. http://www.u-pol.com/countries/en/do.../tds/S2020.pdf
Remember how many cars i've painted
Watch and learn
