ahh i\'ll let ya off then hehe

Umm yeah she\'s off the road at the mo. Thought i\'d dump her at reworx and sort all the dam problems out (and there\'s quite a few) so should feel like a totally different car when she\'s all done (touch wood) - ooh i\'ll i might have some power (shock) :D

ahh i see, reckon you\'ll have her back by the 10th? what probs did ya have, was it mainly the boost issues

Im hoping the de-cat and uprated clutch ive put on should be enough to knock 0.03 secs off my time and get me in the 12\'s :) 12.99 will do im not greedy :D

looking good, glad you got her running sweetly again :) street port aswell, very nice :)

Where abouts are you taking it to get mapped, take it you\'ve got  a pfc in there. Im on the hunt for places that are a little more local than portsmouth, exeter and chesire who can do mapping!

hey guys, sorry I went swimming hehe

probs were/are:

1) fudged boost - think due to a split in the turbo actuator pipe
2) missing apexi ecu found in box in my boot - needed fitting
3) getting it mapped / rolling road mapped
4) support arm replaced (think I bent it on the way to germany)
5) 4 bushes dead in zee rear
6) clutch sticking - poss master cylinder?

thats about it hehe not much eh (pfft) should be done for the 10th! :D

should be sweet after that :D :D

Carlos yours is looking lovely mate glad you didnt do the girly thing and sell her. Only reason for selling a 7 in my book is to get another :D
