He'll be cleaning and polishing it for a week before he posts pictures Kyle! haha.
Glad it's all working! Bonson's car's loud - i could only imagine what that sounds like. My 180 at 70 on a motorway is at 3600rpm!
Makes me want to do stuff to engines now. I have a gti-180 crying out for a supercharger and a 309 crying out for a supercharged gti-6 engine or a T16 should i be so lucky
A lottery win would go down very well indeed!
Hope the car was worth the wait buddy...

Your setting car alarms off because its trying to suck the fluffy dice out and triggering the sensors

It actually feels a bit gutless partly because of the noise it makes. I.e. it makes more noise than thrust.
A PM about brakes or what you wrote above somewhere?

I actually think going forced induction would be a good idea.

Any pictures?
Adding up all the costs I don't think supercharging would cost that much more, ie maybe £1-£2k but that's relatively small considering what's already been spent?

Now you say! All that talk of wanting me to go N/A (and while there's nothing wrong with N/A tuning at all - it's just not as cost effective for my engine), now you say forced!

If its gone from 160 to 214bhp on the same RR then that is still very impressive.
The tricky question is whats next?!
