Big thanks to Kelv, Matt and Ronnie & the boys at SPEC-R :-)
After some very very long weeks of trying to get the car ready, and ariving at Bruntingthorpe for final mapping, only to find out the clutch was fooked under power 
we were suposed to be at a track day the next day (today) so decided to go there and fix the car there!!
So after a quick call to my mate Kelv, he went to my house, picked up a new clutch and set out at 5.30 in the morning on a 4+ hour drive to bring thje clutch up for me
Top man
He arrived with Ronnie and Matt, and with my mate Paul all set about changing the clutch, and after a few hours of huffing and puffing and swearing we got there with 3 hours of the day left to go.
So Ronnie came out in the car with me to show me the way round LOL
Anyway the car was unbelievable thanks to Harvey at SCS, a lot better than I had imagined to be honest and we were running a new intercooler and breather set up from Spec R which if I was to say was good would be an understatement, It was amazing and the highest temp into the engine we saw all afternoon was 19* with an ambient temp of 14*
fookin amazing and the new breather didnt spill a single drop of oil what so ever, so a massive thanks to Pete for his excellent workmanship and products
So just to say thanks to all you boys for making the 1st test today possible !!!

Happily retired
The intercooler is incredible isnt it & the breather
.When it was first fitted to mine most said it was expensive but as you have found out it sets new standards

Yes absolutly
Yes it may be a little dearer than the rest, but if you are paying big money for big power why waste that buying a innoficiant cooler that will actually reduce the power you paid for in the 1st place!
