Not all the spec but what i can remember of the top of my head.


Engine:

Rather special 1340 Crossflow.
LOTS of head work
Some sort of lumpy lairy cam
Twin 40s
Close Cut Box and Quaife Diff

Suspension:

Full Adjustable Front End set up
Bilstein and Leda Shocks
Fully Poly Bushed etc

Other bits and Bobs like 6 point full cage, New seats etc, 4 point Harnesses

This thing would make a fool of fairly quick RS Turbo ive Had etc and hold it own with alot of stuff on the Back Roads


Was Smiling like a kid in a sweety shop on the way home.
