When is full boost Dave!?

Not sure yet, just need to get some miles on transmission and also got to go back to Marks to have the coils machined to the rocker cover

Then it will be on full boost
Wicked mate, done for Rally Day you think?

You on track with it all?

Shame I wasn't out last night due to other commitmnets but i'm sure they'll be other time

Sounds good Dave, makes the wait worthwhile. Better get the boost sorted before the yellow thing hits the road...... but it may still not be enough

with 10k on transmission think it going to be the best it can given the budget


The plate came with the car on the 1st day of registration
