Default Very big thank you to Karl.

1st chance ive had to use the forum in ages. Finaly got my car to a stage where it was ready to be setup, got her to karls on wednesday. He worked on it all day morning to night and with a little help from dingy (thanks steve i do owe you one) and jake (again many thanks) he got her running the best shes ever run in 4 yrs. The power is just spot on, a testament to the quality of his builds and also very thorough setting us skills. Karl, thank you very much for the work you have done, ive struggled for 2 1/2 years to find someone who i trust entirely on working on my car and i appreciate the lengths you went to on wednesday. I got home at reasonable speed and she didnt miss a beat, ive changed the alt belt so its ready 4 the ring now. Thank you.

Ste

I have to say your car is fucking awesome...
I looked around it and I ave to say there isn't anything (apart from the harnesses) that I would change..

I reckon u have the mixture of bling and make it go fast bits just right.

She goes well enough too.

ENJOY IT MATE- thats what they're for..

Unsure on power realy, should b similar to tims engine before he went t34. Usual spec, steel rods/pistons, hybrid t3, 5th injector etc... Will get some finished pics up when i get back from the ring. Fronts looking much better now the intercooler is in place.

Tim, anytime mate, definately owe you the favour. Hear your switching back to good old cvh? Cant say I blame you, never liked the size of sierras and dont seem so cheap compared to the laugh you can have in bean tin for few k. Hope it goes well for you in th future mate
Matt, thanks, saw your 3dr for the first time at doncaster regional day, liked it I must admit, the wheels and the style of it went together well, ever fancied a series 2?
Paul J, Im not fussed who it goes up against, as long as my gearbox is in place I'll race. Dont pretend its the fastest s2 in the land but it does me just fine. No point going for more power IMO, for fwd this is enough. Gonna save my money now and buy me a proper RS, an Evo 6 RS.

Just remembered you had a bit of rivalry, maybe mistaken, would of been a good grudge match. Evo RS
