The real challenge is to get a Keyring out of him.
I got the keyring no probs, (all that cost was ths soul of my second born son )and even the API oil filler cap in blue which was a pleasant surprise when I opened my bonnet after its 1000 mile service,but the BACON SARNIE has now taken on mythical proportions and still eludes me,On your next visit oh venerable 911 could I accompany you ,so that I may be instructed in the art of the sarnie ******.

I am looking to follow a similar path and am curious why you are using modified 550cc injectors and not new 740cc's? Is it a cost thing or are the lateral modied better than stock 740cc's?

Cheers

Dan

Darren, tried wringing you but no answer. The courtesy car will not be back here 'til Thursday 5th April. As the customer using it cannot get here before that.

we are all geared up for your job and it may be better to piuck up the wagon on Tuesday after Easter as then you'll have the car all Easter. If it comes here on the Thursday it'll not get worked on til Tuesday anyway.

I know you really love the wagon bit there's no snow predicted as far as I know in the UK so you should be Ok in the 2 door.

Let me know all is OK

David

PS; courtesy car loan = minus 5 bacon butties or minus 3 keyrings.

If you wish to know the exchange rate

1 buttie = .60 of a keyring.....................

Dan, we use the variable rate Lateral injectors simply because they are so adaptable and varying the fuel pressure increase or decreases the flow of the injectors.

So if there are future changes no need to buy any more injectors. Lateral modify injectors that we supply them, to APi tolerances. We colour code them so that we know what they are, as soon as we see them.

For reference they will be black colour coded from us.
