In Prickle's absence I can confirm the price of £1068.00 if you supply the parts.
We offer an incredibly quick turnaround and can put you up in a hotel for the night if it takes more than one day.
Let me know if you're interested and we'll book you in.
Thanks, Tom @ Holdaway Motorsports

Can vouch for Holdaway Motorsports mate. Carbed my Saxo and did a well good job. It's gained 60bhp which was more than I was expecting and Tom and the team were really helpful.
I'd go for it, you won't regret it

Well I didn't want massive gains because I didn't want my saxo to be faster than my scooby so got it set up for 60bhp more.
The carbs do look good tho

Tom @ Holdaway Motorsports price is a rip off.
I could fit a carb for half that, what a blatant scammer.
can't guarantee results

Right so a VTR, you'll definable need to PM prickle as they require specialist tools to setup properly and he is one of the only people i know of who have them. The other being D4MJT.
