Thanks mate, cable has to run like that, smoothest curve as possible to get it going as straight onto the TB spindle as possible

Did you enjoy the video mate? I've got plenty of pics to upload & update this thread. I go back to Australia tomorrow so I'll sort it out when I get over there

2 things:

1) how the hell did your mrs fall asleep with those bodies barking on the way there?

2) who made your manifold / exhaust? and what price was it? pm me if you like
Lol...

1) Because a big group of us were playing laser quest until midnight on Saturday night & we got up at 4am ish to get ready. Plus it's very sociable before 4,000 rpm, after that all hell let's loose

2) A chap called Mike Edwards, he's an absalute legend, very recommended. Did a great job and turned it around quickly as well. Price... Very reasonable, especially considering its a once off jobbie, I'll let you sort that out with him if you want one

Hi mate, I find that you really need to plan everything properly and think it through to get a decent end result. Do you mean oil cooler? The oil catch tank hoses are pretty self explanatory I think, they come out of the jp4 covers (behind the coilpack cover) and directly to the catch tank.

It's got a box round it as I chose the wrong upload setting, so just reuploading now.

Josh Preston's Sandy Brown 200+bhp Citroen Saxo - YouTube
Did you get round to uploading the one without the black box around it mate?

Not a fan of silverstone but love the car, sounds amazing!
Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself
Good going
Lol cheers Moo, I hope it was worth the potential telling off lol. It does sound pretty epic once you get up the top end, although its pretty sociable under 4.5k

Personally I don't mind silverstone, in general I don't like boring flat airfield tracks, but silverstone flows very nicely and I like the quick corners (Becketts, maggots etc). If the track had undulation it would be epic I reckon

I know, only pass on the left, BMW comes flying up the inside on the right lol. If I would have passed on the right it would have been alot easier lol

The scooby you pass at 5:40ish is the one that was parked up smashed up at the end of the day. Did he come off in your session? (this question might be answered once I watch the full video )
I was on brooklands straight when the session was red flagged so I'm not exactly sure what happened mate. The power makes me giggle, it's insane for a 1.6 NA

Even with good power in our little cans its a pain in the arse when the barges poodle through the corners then nail it down the straights.
Lol true Ryan, eventually I had to get aggressive and go for it, or risk just pootleing around at the back for 20mins

Yeah coming out of the corner he completely blocked me, I lost my momentum, then he pulled over but kept his foot in, so by the time I was back up the rev's and reeling him in we were at the next corner... Oh well... I don't let it wind me up tbh, just get on it it
