You did mate I thought i would never do it again but to be honest its a great car on the track

Its only running on 4 greens at the mo so would say aprox 350bhp but with that massive T4 the old girl seems quick and pushes much bigger BHP car round

I have a superb big spec brand new head ready to fit , along with a P8 and correct loom to run all 8 greens and we hope for over 500 bhp , i just need to get my finger out and fit everything
