I'm quite curious what the economy is going to be like actually. Might be worth filling it up completely at some point, and then driving it around economically. However, that might be comparable to trying to eat a doughnut without licking your lips. Haha.

Im very keen to move away from N/A power sometime in the near future with my new car and go for a big turbo however your car is very exciting and hats off to you for all the hard work. Well done!!!

Thanks very much, I appreciate the comments
I don't believe in boost for FWD cars. Yes, it can be mental, but I don't believe you get the best out of it.

Ah, I was wondering about Yates. He was keeping this under his belt...
It wasn't that economic before, even being really light. Will be interesting to see how it will be with the wilder cams and bodies.

On its first run, it made over 180bhp on the new rollers, so well over 190bhp in reality. Then on the second run, something wen't horribly wrong, and it's running on 3 cylinders. Suspected fucked valve or spring. Great...

Nice.....
Economy will be fine mate, same as a cammed vts basically - well mine is anyway, maybe a tad worse than mine as your running slightly wilder cams but everything else is essentialy the same.
