Tidy stuff be good to see it run some time even more impressive then if it's on 888's! Doubt the box will play up if it's a good one can't get much better than an ffd!

As Ginge says old oil soaked tyres which are 195/40/15 or something, steel rims

Some proper rubber has to be the next thing aswell as a few performance updates

Heres one from the day

cheers lads, the car is getting there now, ive still got a few things i want to do on the car yet, just on a cash flow issue at the min with going on hol soon and other things needing priority
still to come is new tyres, maybe some mickey t steet legal ones
launch control
flat shift
a few minor map tweeks
and the suspension set up
9.5 is the aim and street legal and it will go round a track quite well with a wheel change and a suspension adjustment once these bits are done

Not a problem mate.

Just fit a 700bhp ex-Gallagher engine, FFD sequential box, and get into the 9s and we'll be there in a flash.

No, just the engine and box will be sufficient mate. There's no need to go overboard.

Its got a few extra parts

Different Turbo
Different Injectors
Different Inlet Cam
Different Inlet Manifold
Different Front Brakes
Different Rear Brakes
Different Intercooler
Different ECU
Quaife Diff
Oil Cooler
S.E.C.S Monitor
Wasted Spark
Power Steering
044 Fuel Pump

And to top all that it is a different engine and box
