Just been catching up on this thread

Your car is and you have done so much yourself. It is perfect.

Fair play for sticking at it and doing a great job. Now there's inspiration.

Now.......can you tell me where the money tree is you've found

big thanks to simon ( jolly green monster )

for traveling all the way to me and fitting and mapping my car

it has turned out better than i ever thought and can't thank si enough for making it all come together i still have lots of things in the pipe line for the thread like getting suspension set up and a few more styling mods to do

will be getting it on the rollers after christmas and having a final tweek to see if we can squeeze a few more bhp's out of it
