The prelude is gonna be heavier so your saxo must be pushing around 300 bhp! That's brilliant, must have a wicked chip in it?

Check under the ecu, often if its been "chipped", you will see a sticker that states "Mccains"

Nothing but pricks on this forum! For a start if you redline your car for 5mins you'll probably blow the welds on the intake!!
I wouldn't be surprised if your car is standard but you yourself are indeed ken blocks gay love child? Thusly capable of feats most drivers can only dream of (but also your gay so people find it difficult to give you the respect you feel you deserve)

People without knowledge of cars and how they work usually say its 'camm'd n chipp'd' to other noobs to aid a sale.
Anyone with half of an idea of cars will ask to see a receipt or pic's of them going in.
But the people that do know about cars can smell bullshit a mile away just from how the seller/owner types/writes eg 'last owner sed it woz cammed n chipped n it goes lyk fuck so must be'
Also a chip isn't going to transform the car.. They're mainly shit.
The reason you won is a wonderful thing called BHP per TONNE

You beat your mate off the lights - did you satisfy the criteria and do it best of 3?
Did he know you were racing him?
Was he at the same lights?
I'm just jeffin'.

120 bhp standard, which is pretty damn good for a car that weighs the same as a rasin.
If is cammed & Mapped it will be quicker.
Light car reasonble amount of bhp, will beat some of the heavier cars off the start.

I had a Vtr before the Vts, the Vtr was decat ect ( pretty quick i thought) and then came the Vts that murdered it standard.
done a few bits now since which has made it quicker again like a full service ( new cambelt, sparks, fuel filter ect) de cat straight through with force cold air induction...
Got me 743 cams and Vernier pullys ready to go in now, so thatll make a massive improvement.
Chuck some photos up or make a progress thread m8
