Just wanted to see my Cossie on t'internet!
Fitted new engine last month, took it to Cadwell yesterday, well chuffed.

nice piccies mate, love the 3 doors i do. looking good, what power is it making?

Nice pics megabusa, heard that Cadwell is a nice circuit to drive. Can you give full spec of your car please?

Its supposed to be chipped to stage 1, but on the rollers it was overboosing like a mad 'un, over 20psi. Removed the AMAL valve, looped the wastegate to the turbine, fitted 10 psi actuator and ran it like that, so about 0.8 bar should probably give it about 230-240 BHP. Gonna fit a bleed valve and run at a nice safe 13psi.
Its got a fully seam-welded shell, full cage, inboard tank, custom made Avo suspension, and all sorts of other nice stuff.
To be honest I was amazed how well she went at Cadwell, only my lack of driving ability let us down. Never even lost the back end! Grip and brakes were awesome, straight line speeds pretty good too.
Edited to say I had to stop going on the track after a while because it made me travel sick!!!
