PassionFord Post Whore!!
The finished car looks superb and the place where you took it to get the geometry sorted in Southampton is very good, he set up my 2wd Saff and there is a photo of it on his wall.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
Looks spot on!
Need to get over to that alignment place and get my steering wheel squared up!
Random question but are you in Esso and working in CCR5 at the moment?

Little update.
Well never made it out on the track last year as had a few issues when I was on the rolling road, we decided to call it a day as something just wasn’t right, we stripped the engine down and found a few small issues but enough to prompt a full engine rebuild to a more modern spec including management and turbo setup.
Im due to pick the engine up Monday and am hoping to have it fitted and back to my tuners with the next 2/3 weeks so I’m ready for when the weather turns as desperate to get out in it this year. I’ve also had the gearbox rebuilt with quaife internals and had the engine all put on multi plugs as that will make life easier in the future for removal and refitting.
Engine should be good for 600bhp now. 😎😎

Wow, this is so clean and I love the livery. Will you run it as high as 600 bhp? Should be lively on track at over 500.

Oh it wont be staying that clean mate it was built for action just not had any yet lol. Regards the power its going to be on a 4 stage boost controller, not sure what each one will be set at yet but I should imagine it will probably stay on the lower 2 going in what a mates car is like.

Well engines back in and was due to go back to the tuners last week for the new management and rolling road session but obviously that didn’t happen which was a shame as I’m desperate to get out in it now.
