Ahhhh, your Carolines (kennys ex missus) Nephew arent you?
Your car came here with serious running problems (suspected head gasket problems and you required it confirmed) the chip fitted to the car was a GGR chip that was faulty for some reason so to run it without hitting the boost limiter we advised fitting another chip which YOU agreed you wanted so we fitted one.
When the chip issue was resolved and we testd rove, we determined that the head gasket was indeed faulty and advised you of this, along with header tank cap failure and the amal valve was actually missing.
You had teh option of fitting a new one at £60 or a cheaper option was a bleed valve (Lockable 3 port) You chose the cheaper option so we fitted it and set the boost to a max of 18, as all Stg 1 escort T28s run. (where did you get your 30+psi reading from then?)
You were then given the bill and told your headgasket is failing as YOU originally suspected and we advise you dont use the engine hard until it is repaired for obvious reasons.
I recall you (or was it your dad?) were also upset that you wanted to pay only half the bill and have the other half on credit and Kenny refused you even though your semi related, so thats put your nose out of joint i guess? Sorry for you...
That sound's as little more like events as I remember them, but it was a while ago so forgive me any small inaccuracies......

I take it instead of taking it easy and getting your headgasket fixed when youd saved up, you took it out and thrashed it around and made it worse instead? 
And your 30psi quote? Where was that measured?

Absolutely priceless the massive difference between how he presented it and what actually happened, how the fuck can ANY business manage to keep a good reputation when jokers like this are running round bad mouthing them when they have done asbolutely nothing but the correct thing?
