Hello one and all...another newbie...now with pics!
Hi All,
Been meaning to register for ages and never got around to it!
Not only that but wanted to have the new engine on the way before I got too much p1ss taking for being another 'shopping trolley' owner
Great site, know some of the people (KTCos, Sunny, Mike R (my Stack!)) and love reading the tuner posts
Makes my days go with a smile on my face.
Hope to see some of you guys around this/next year when the car's finished
Keep up the good work.
Dave

Rudey, CheeRS m8, not too familiar with the site yet...is there an uploader or something? As it's generally in bits I've not got too many photos lying about! Most of what is about is a tad old to say the least...will have loads when the engine's in I can assure you
Not that it will compete with some of the top cars on here though!

Ah right! I was doing a ZVH and then Ian H managed to persuade me to do the Zetec Turbo instead....as Sid beat me to 'Supremely fast ZVH'
Still it's taken two years and lots of cash to get it all sorted.....it's all the other things you need to go with the engine....management, loom, turbo, mapping, dyno, brakes, gearbox, tca's just seems to go on and on. God knows how much the cossie boys spend on their toys going by what I've spent on mine!

Yup.....that's why my runnabout is a turd of a Rover and not a Beemer like most of my colleagues....still normal driving is b0ll0x! I think what I could of had but I do love my RS's
Hm not too sure Sid could have gone much further from what I heard but with enough money you can do most things! Sunny's testament to that...who would have thought a Fiesta could do 178mph....amazing!
