Fanco, you got the rebuild that covered fuck all miles I did 7k in me Esc Cos. 3k were in the original box that I blew up...

Dont forget the original was used by Jason (Previous owner) for track days, etc and he had one of the original DPE boxes He scared the shit out of me driving down back roads when test driving me Esc Cos.. Would love to of seen him drive it on track

P.S. If you wanna sell it back to me thats fine mate
