"Rocket Rodney" - that makes me laugh..........

Just sounds like a line out of only fools!

"What's that Del?"

"It's a rocket, Rodney!"

Makes you laugh & makes me cringe only one Rocket & his name is Ronnie, stick to MADRod in future lads.

Back to the car its about to change again when a bit turns up from Sweden so the Spec is fluid. Mark has plans & i usually go along with them. usually means more ponies & more expense .

I Know very little about the Spec of my Turbo, I pay Mark to sort it all out.
Driving the car their is less lag than on my old T4 conversion & from 3.5k on Power is instantaneous. I run 2.5 bar (640bhp) & Low boost is 1.2 bar (510bhp).
Mark may give you more details why not contact him.

Rod are you going to be one of the first users of the new smoothy nitrous solenoids when they are out, or is it a case of you use so little gas that they are of little or no benefit to your car?
