How many copycat impressions will there be 
Don't bother trying if you have the original ECU controlling boost - there is a speed limiter at 147 mph on UK cars.

i was told they would catch you with the first flash but not with the second due to the speed but the rozzers would still prosecute as they know you wouldhave been in excess of the speed limit to beat the second flash.

I have the fool proof way of beating the gatso.
If your belting down a road 140mph/170mph and you come across a 40 zone patrolled by the dreaded gatso put your foot on the break pedal, this will illuminate your rear cluster with a red glow.
Keep pressing the centre pedal until your Speedo shows 40mph or below.
Am certain you will get through the zone without a flash in site
