Formal introduction
« on: September 25, 2009, 01:00:25 am »
Have posted up on here a few times but not actually introduced myself. Some will know me on SCN

I have another White K1. I opted for GIAC software, just to be different really and am really pleased with the results iv,e achieved so far.

looking nice mate, with every one of these k1s i see, i like them more and more.

A year ago, i would have said i prefered the exhaust arrangement of the BTCC kit but theres a lot of those about now, and there mainly 140brake tdis

Seeing as they don,t make K1,s anymore, i think a numbered plaque would be a good idea. Best thing iv,e done is put the spring kit on - ride quality is much improved and it sits just nice now.

Done a few RR,s as the mods have progressed. We have had 2 SCN RR days at the same place recently and they seem spot on with the numbers so i,m using that for my quoted figures. Its made 351 + 361bhp respectively with torque around 360ft/lbs. Still on o/e intercooler so should see a nice improvement once i get around to installing it.

This is my most recent graph

Hello blade.

Sounds a bit odd me saying welcome to you.
