Carry a sturdy box in the boot. Some of the engine parts may be reusable.

Also carry some decent leather cloths. The engine parts will be very hot when you pick them up from the road.

as suggested start small & make sure all parts of the engine & drive train are in tip top condition, also get an insurance quoat before starting, just make sure your sitting down before ringing them.

thanks 4 all the comments... started looking at used trailers and heat resistant gloves. probably nick one of those massive extinguishers from my office.

but seriously, std engine should be able to cope if i get a controller to gradually increase the gases. i can mess around with fueling no probs but it's just all those timing retard which i'm concerned.

imagine using these to overcome anti lag! har har! potentially more powerful than after the turbo kicks in!

think of all the possibilities.... i'll be back.
