    Re: Back at work

    I don`t mind being back at work as it means I can get away from my hell hole garage at the min which is a mess and I can`t be bothered sorting

    On the other hand I don`t have to get messy on site anymore and it keeps me away from the misses nagging me all the time but she always seems to continue to spend my money even when I am not with her

    I'm sat here looking at Sales Forecasts & Figures & have absolutely NO interest in them

    I wish I'd won the Lottery!

    Re: Back at work

    It's the R53 which is normally supercharged. We make and fit a turbo kit to replace the supercharger.

    This customer built his own engine and got a few things wrong. (ring gaps)
