Default my engine build

just thought id post a big up to A1 rallysport & stu @ msd for the mapping, the old girl done 15,000 miles since my full rebuild and
fair play apart from a few set up probs which had nothing to do with
any of above and stu sorted
its still spot on, ive never had to top up oil between 6000mls changes
and it pulls as strong today as when new

also big thanx 2 ian@racetek for sorting me a cheap and i mean
cheap build with scotty and for all the other bits i needed for 400+ bhp

there are a few tuners on here which i respect and would recommend
to anyone because of work they've done on m8s cars but i thought
id thank mine for there excellent work
