Hope to see you at the shows next year.

Iv always tried to work on the mechanical side of things before looks if im honest sam, its a far better method than having a shit car that looks mint.
bad times on the bumper you have to be really careful when driving around these days to keep your car in good shape its proper shit.

Out of interest, how long does it take to remove the lump, and put it back in?
|
aha its all manic atm lols, to remove and lump and refit you could do it over 2 days easily and thats taking your time on removal too. me and alex swapped a lump over from 8v to 16v in 45mins lols.

It's kind of you of you offering mate, as I know you've got a lot on.
Yeah, you will hear the boddies. Sounds awesome, and even better inside when driving. When you accelerate around at around 3-4k, you can hear the valves opening and the whistling and stuff. Fecking cool!

Haha. Will get the map checked first, as it's overfulling a bit now that the piston rings have bedded in. The plan is to go last, and get the car re-mapped / tweaked, and do a couple of power runs. Then it should be all gravy for passenger runs.
