The two work great 2gether. Havin the extension makes the travel on the gear stick slightly more, but the short shifter reduces that travel and its like you are using the original stick, but with it inches away from the steering wheel.

Its a great mod, I love having the gear **** close to the wheel, feels like you're in a touring car, lol

What kind of power are you going to be aiming for? Will be keeping an eye- already looks good!

So using the bigger injectors gives you better atomisation at high pressures? You learn sumin new everyday

At the mo and without a dyno to prove it, I'd estimate the power at 350bhp. The trouble is if I want to go 2wards 380-400 then I'm going to risk replacing the gear box from a 6-speed or PPG to handle the massive increase in torque.

Also I'd have to consider doing the internals... basically for 50bhp I'd be lookin at spending ££££'s and ££££'s... is it really worth it?

I guess if I could aim for 450-500 at an expense of a couple ££££ then I'd seriously consider it
