IIRC bullit ran it on Vpower, we all told him it wouldnt make it any faster but he said he could feel the difference between that & the 95ron from Tesco. Just wasting his money though i think, you can get double clubcard points at tesco.

thats c0rrect t0m. there was tw0 ways 0f d0ing the c0nversi0n, either strap it t0 the r00f like i did 0r cut the engine in half. 0ne half sits 0n the existing m0unts and the 0ther is thr0wn in the back.
