Thumbs up Mike Rainbird / Motorsport Developments

I ordered an in line oil filter for the turbo from Mike @ R & B, very helpful. A top bloke, the standard one from Mike doesn't fit, as my car is using a GT30, on a 2wd manifold on a EEC4 head. Without hesitation Mike is replacing the hose, in my required length and fittings at no cost. A great service, and won't hesitate with any other parts I need in the future. My car is demanding if nothing else, so no doubt will be speaking again soon. Thanks Mike.

Also I have my car booked @ MSD on Saturday for the week to be mapped. I can't wait to see what they do with all my new parts on. I feel like a child at christmas, I can't wait for the drive home. It's nearly a 600 mile round trip, so better be good fun on the way home. As I'm leaving the car its a long way home. A train was £76 each way per person, instead I've hired a car for the week for £93. Public tansport is a joke in this country, it'll never beat the car!!

You have used or will be using 2 of the very best in the Ford and RS game, wise choice.

I've used Mike for parts and Stu for parts, a chip and a full custom remap.

I've always been very happy with both of them

When I left Stu's last, my car had at least 476 bhp, made my drive up to Scotland for the week very entertaining

I'll ditto that. I know Mike and Stu and they are both top guys.

I'll never buy a product from anyone else if Mike can come close to their price.

Cheers
