But you were only running it for a day or 2 so it doesn't count. My tiddly KO 3 kicked your sig spec back to Yorkshire.  :innocent:  :signLOL:

Before it was Nitro'd i admit, it was faster than a super hero.  :notworthy:  :wink:

LOL :grin:

I did turn the nitrous off and had the wrong REVO settings in it with no timing on it for that run to give you half a chance though :drinking:

It did do a 12.8 QTR at the Pod though :wink:
Embarrassingly it did a 12.9 at York before the nitrous too :laugh:

The 0-100mph in 8.8 seconds felt lovely when the nitrous was working right :evilgrin:

of course, but the walk and engine mounts are a cheapish start whilst you save for the clutch and diff which is going to set you back £2100-2400 realistically more if changing the DMF

Right, Janner.  :congrats:

It's a good thread including diagrams and some facts.
Think we don't need another 'who's got the longest thread'.
