If only you were closer Steve.  Would like to take a drive before I buy one.

I'll try and give you a call tomorrow.  Need to gang up on revo to get a true off the shelf map.

Afraid So Rob,  he mentioned it was about time I came out the closet (don't know what he meant by that) :confused:

I turned the boost up this weekend for some fun driving, man it gobbles the Meth up now
Ran at 1.8 bar for data logging and was very pleasantly surprised To say the least
Early days still though plenty of heavy testing to do yet
I'll buz you next week regs your bits and pieces


Cheers mate

When i come down for the clutch i deff want a ride in this. Will i need some spare pants just in case? :ashamed: :grin:

Looking forward to how it turns out :innocent:

Your Audi is not better than a Porsche if you think it is go drive a new Porsche it's not about how quick it is it's about how good the car is,you can make any car faster it's just a 911 is a very special place to sit and drive

My mate has driven all the Porsches, and still reckons the new Cayman R (as a drivers car) wipes the 911's Ar$e.
Personally if I had the £80K to spend, a 911 turbo would not even be considered  :sick:

And I thought you were orginally joking!  :signLOL:

As a drivers car my mates 911 turbo is much better than my TTRS. As a day to day proposition I think the audi is much better.

I've never driven a 997, but I'm put off them because of their looks.
Like Clarkson says, they all look the same, sort of remind me of SAAB, they never come out with something original  :popcornsoda:

its called a 911 why would they change the shape as it would not be a 911 if it did not keep to the 911 design

I am not a Porsche fan either, i'm lucky in the position of having driven several of them over the last 10 years as my mate is a massive Porsche 911 Fanboy and is currently on his 9th Porker and I have driven 5 of the 9 he has had (He won't let me near his latest GT3 RS  :grin:) probably as I will get out and say "Rather have a 458"  :signLOL:

The 911's of his I have driven:-

911 RS (993)
911 Carrera 4 (996) (He bought this for his wife but she did not want it, although in his divorce she suddenly wanted it  :grin:)
911 GT3 (996)
911 Turbo (996)
911 GT2
911 Turbo S

Had to say I preferred the 911 RS (993) purely based on looks.

He still keeps trying to convert me as he knows i'm a huge Ferrari fanboy and he hates ferrari's, ETTO  :signLOL:

My sentiments exactly  :happy2:

My mate also actually bought a brand new GT3 RS and sold it after 3 months as he couldn't get on with it as a daily drive - he's now got a TTRS  :signLOL:
