think i recognise this car - is it mr rainbows old car? awesome car if it is!
as for insurance - your doing well. and that power graph looks pretty good to me. high revs power means a decent drivable cossie to me off boost like mine was although nowhere near 480bhp! that must be fun!

What did you keep breaking on the old diffs ? does thet Gripper have a better cwp or atleast shot peened as I was under the impression thats the weak link ?
Either way you should be leaving some equal black lines down the road now !

i hear of quotes under 1k for 23 year olds all the time on pf with big insurance companies and i cant understand how people are getting those preiums????
cheapest quote i got was Ł4,000
licence for 6 years, 1 years ncb (only coz ive been name driver for 5)
one company said "we wont even insure you unless your prepared to pay 20k" wow
looks like i wont be owning a cosworth then! still love em

big boost at low revs on stock diffs is NOT the way forward
