Mines on 160000 so no doubt it's lost a fair bit. My mate bought an astra vxr the weekend and I can keep up with that so can't be all bad. They run a 2.0 Turbo but have 240bhp standard.

Yeah in that respect I'm very lucky to know my mot tester. Been a family friend for pass 15 years now. I got the same figure in my head. Aiming for the 270 I'll be well chuffed. Even as mine stands at 211 it get lively when it can see the rain.

The specialist seem to run away from the competetion when it comes to remaps. There will be just a couple of names floating about for the different regions. I was the same with Duncan. I spoke to him over the phone and he gave me a list and advice on where to start with. So I bought myself a 3 port boost solenoid and have my decat sat here waiting. Just need a fuel pump and panel filter then it'll be a case of save save save. What sort of outcome are you looking for power wise?

Really? How come? I'm the same building funds. It's not easy. I had to make a choice the weekend. I either get a remap or pay for my training that I need for work. Got the training [emoji20]

I've got my eyes on Duncan at race dynamix. He comes highly recommened at the minute. I've been to Surrey rolling road before too.

I just myself a new exhaust hoping to fit it today if I can borrow a ramp. I abandoned it the weekend when it started raining. I have a decat down pipe ready now but it won't go on until I have a remap ready.

It's really nice to be recognised. I had it Sunday coming out my road got a wave then we both went through the Dartford tunnel. Needless to say we made quite some noise through there.

Hi Sandy. Welcome to the club.

What a finish!

[emoji38] I couldn't believe it. I had a massive slide going then all I see was a black tranny rolling over the top of me. [emoji14] [emoji14] [emoji14] [emoji48]

I have a TY752 gearbox that's been sat in my garden for quite a while. I can't comment on the condition because it has never been fitted on a car I've owned. I bought it as an engine/gearbox combo but only need engine. Also have the air con pump and radiator that I took from my car as the evaporator was tested and leaking. These bits came from a X reg classic UK turbo 2000.

Yeah some good highlights. Can't wait for the video! He came in like a wrecking ball [emoji38] [emoji38] [emoji38]

I love it when the truth can be found out with a bit of research. Good stuff!

Beautiful car. I've always wanted a WR1. I know they have a specialist forum for wr1 which have most of the production numbers documented. Might be worth giving them a shout or browse and see what pops up. They also have a list of all the numbers and whether they're written off/cat d type of thing. Hope that helps a little [emoji5]

Sounds like there is a lot of pre worked excuses flying around. [emoji42] [emoji42]

Oh I didn't explain that to well. I wasn't at the air show. It was on its way to clacton. Got the same feel. I got some pics but only on my phone.

I see the lanc flying last year when it was doing the air show at Clacton. It had a hurricane and spitfire escorting it. Love this planes. Only two left in the world air worthy.

Today I am mainly...

I was in basildon today picking up my new exhaust [emoji14]

Bad times. You going to put it up for repairs or breaking it?

Just my pennies worth here. Could you whip the intercooler off to give yourself a better veiw of where it could possibly go?

Have you looked into specialist insurance companies? I was quoted £1300 from a comparison site and found a price for half of that from specialist.

The replicas will be cheaper to insure because they are none turbo. I'm not sure on the tax for that year but I believe it goes on the co2 emmissions.

Looks tasty! Clean tidy motor.

Nice. Stick some pics up!
