Default well i broke it

on the way home from combe and the clutch ratchet broke, so more on the to do list.....

im thinking that the car is fast enough without fitting my inlet set up so might sell that on and get it mapped as it is.

so i had a lovely drive home in a lorry,

and thanks grayzo for leaving shame about your blow out lol karmas a bitch, and wheres you jack lol

that will teach you for laughing and leaving me.... ha only two juctions yourself
