Nice bodies didnt fancy the bike carb route then?

Thats a nice car as well, tis the one with the Emerald ECU isnt it? Saw it for sale a while ago it was probrably the only RSi that tempted me to buy it and break mine up rather than restore Luckily it was sold, i came to my senses and now im getting mine sorted

At least it keeps another one on the road mate! Yeah thats the one with the emerald ECU. the engine is away to come out shortly and get the overhaul to release as much power as poss! I am aiming for around 170-180bhp figure with the throttles and a 8k rev limit! new rods pistons cam lifters and biggest valve head! so heres hoping next year it will perform a bit more respectfully!!

Revs up to 9000 with the CVH 16V. He lives far away from here, I've never seen the old car in action, the new hasn't been on the road yet.

Thought the Ring was pretty much a 'public road' these days

Still a great car all the same
