As I want to upgrade my car too, I have some questions for sunil:

- How fast is your car???
- What are the torque/bhp figures for your car??
- Do you have a lot of turbo-lag (bigger turbo)??
- What boost are you running??
- Do you think your conversion is safe??
- How much did you pay for the Link and VF23 fitted and mapped??

greetings from Switzerland and thank you for any comments!

Can I assume this isnt a wind up/**** take

I would have asked:

how slow is your car compared to my Granny in a VW Polo
Did the torqe/bhp register on the dyno?
Do u have a proper turbo
What keeps u going to tune that car of yours
Are u year 2k compliant
How much were you given to put on the VF23



Hey, Hey - only kidddddiiiiinnnnngggg.

> Not a lot of lag, but boost certainly comes in about 500rpm later.

- What boost are you running??
> Right now none as i am sitting here on my laptop and the car is in the drive parked up . Seriously, i run 1.2bar held no overboost

- Do you think your conversion is safe??
> As safe as anything else in life. I have complete faith in the guys who fit and map the goodies on my car

- How much did you pay for the Link and VF23 fitted and mapped??
Cant recall, BR Dev can quote you for the Link fitting and mapping and the VF23 and associated turbo parts and its about 4-5 hours labour + oil/filter x 2 to fit the turbo.

Greetings from North Essex - you remember - the bit North of South Essex.

Everyone tells me you never take your car outside the London Borough of Croydon and never take it on the track - are you going to Brands on Friday??

Thank you for any comments

Dave,tried to get him to come down but he says he has to study,was hoping to see the grudge match face to face .Trying to get him to come down for the evening for a few beers and a curry assuming Danny F has found a decent curry house.So you may yet have your chance.

I think you're all being unkind to Sunilp.

The real reason he never leaves Croydon is because his car is actually a tram-car that they've introduced into Croydon town centre in the last couple of years. He can't go where there aren't any rails. It all adds up:
His 'downpipe' is really the overhead connector to the electric power lines;
The 'Link' is actually the bit that connects the front & rear carriages, so the 'MY98' goes round bends like it really is on rails;
He needs to get the 'mapping' right to make sure the tram goes down the right route and 'picks up' cleanly mid-range (people waiting for the tram halfway along the route);
VF23 is the Public Service Vehicle licence that you get after 'studying';
'Quickshift' is when he has to drive the tram at short notice or on his day off;
And the turbo is a little fan heater in the front of the cab to keep his fingers warm so he can keep posting the wonderful words of wisdom day and night.

Everybody that knows Sunil, knows that he gets a nose bleed outside of Croydon.

I'm only going on reports from good friends, about curry houses. But then I am but a humble englishman!

Being an Essex boy I take a lot of offence to that last comment.

Having live in & around Croydon & now living in Bromley in Kent I can say that Croydon is a s*** hole of a place.

You probaly dont even live in Croydon, more like 1 of the scummy bits on its outside.

You aint clever or Funny.

Take you Car to Brands its not far. but then it aint in Croydon.

I can report Sunil does actually leave Croydon every day as he works in Epsom (Just don't mention this to the rest of the Croydon massive)

When I see him he doesn't wave or flash his lights though, he just sticks his head out the window and shouts "muppet"

The only reason Essex smells of poo is because the wind is blowing up from Croydon.

JoeyDeacon
When Sunlip leans out of the window and shouts "muppet" he's looking in the door mirror.

Wow - getting out and seeing the world eh - Croydon to Epsom every day!!

Dave T-S,

But then again if you lived in the paradise that is Croydon would you ever want to leave??. Where better to meet classy women who say "somfink" and "innit" than the Blue Orchid??

Dave T-S,

Hey Leatherhead is a hip and happening place I will have you know!! Granted the night life has taken a bit of a battering since they closed the Thorndike Theater but we still have the Working mens club and the British Legion.

If only there were large groups of p!ssed lads in orange YSL shirts roaming about looking for a fight it would be a much better place...

The Blue Orchid - what a place!!

The phrase 'cattle market' comes to mind....

Cheers

Barge, somewhere along the line you seem to have lost your sense of humour or realisation that this banter between myself, Dave, Chris, Sith and Darren is all light hearted.
Perhaps i have offended you in a past life, i dont know?
Perhaps you should just be a good little boy and go play in the traffic?

Dave, u are too funny for me - i give up trying to outwit you!!!!

Derek_555, that was really and truly funny, you are a talented man

JoeyDeacon ala Darren, i would wave or flash but you seem to want to look the other way or not stop to let me out of junctions. Now i did actually say "muppet" to you the other day - your lip reading is excellent.
I am curious at your expert knowledge of the "Blue Schoolkid" as it is affectionately known to locals....do you visit it often, as u talk about it all the time??. At the end of the day, you keep shaking your funky stuff on the Blue Orchid dancefloor and you too can one day, maybe - just maybe, pick up a young underage prepubescent girl that you fantasise about daily

In the unlikely event of someone finding a crowbar big enough to prise your wallet out of your pocket - i'd LET you buy me a pint and pour it over my head.

Sunil,

Why the hell aren't you at work today?? Thats really annoyed me now as I was hoping that I could avoid letting you out of a junction later.

Is your wallet so fat because it is full of condoms that are well past their use by date??

As for underage girls it's no wonder I am always late for work the amount of schools I have to drive past

You are a megaMuppit and YOU are the pillock that can't read - if you read MY post properly the emphasis is on LET - as in you.
BTW I've told you before don't insult me I work weekends at BURGER KING not MaccyD's.


The only fat thing about you is not your wallet but your **** where you spend all of your life sitting in front of your PC. :

Considering you think you are the conissieur on curries how come you know so much about BK and MacDonalds??

You said the other day we wouldn't know a decent curry if it walked up and kicked us in the ***** - well you wouldn't know a pair of ***** if they walked up and kicked your curry

If you've got 11 condoms left no wonder they're out of date - that's 11 years supply for you (assuming you stick one on your head at your annual office party - which is very appropriate as you must be the office ********)

I also like to see what you like to eat and then say "gor blimey what a lurrrrrvly vindaloo, gimme some more poppadoms and chutney mate and some of that pickle stuff......." as you belch for the 20th time....very cultured

Given the size of my head and my ego, the condoms wont even fit over it which is why i cant to go any fancy dress christmas parties.

"Lucikly" you didn't study spelling at Uni then

Hey - where have you seen me eat a curry - you forgot "oi, boy, get us another 20 pints of lager (BURP)".
At least we have better taste in wallpaper M8

With your taste in clothes, I thought every day was a fancy dress party for you!!

Brands - wasn't intending to go - just winding u up - but here's an invite to Snett on 26 Nov.......
