Cheers scratcher that's a cracking picture just need to lower it and get a nice set of euro deep dish wheels on it but don't think I'll have the cash to get some wheels before the mag shoot
very very nice!!!!
you have the other videos?
Cheers mate. I redone it, the windscreen was wrong before
I was going to say it could go lower at Pod.
A nice set of Lenso BSX would look lovely... or splash out on some real BBS RS
Well my thread has been a bit quiet lately but the car seems to be running really well now fitted my aem gauge and it's running very rich still but was very impressed as I had my first road race today with an 11 plate Audi a5 3.0 v6 which is 240 bhp and nearly 370 lb of torque and I left it like it was standing still and at only 14 psi so very pleased so far and just looking forward to putting it on the rollers now and seeing what power I get
looks awesome, is that protected by gard-x?
Lol sorry mate completely forgot about bringing one up for you shall I bring it to ace cafe meet mate
And then it went BANG at 14psi not pulled it apart yet but I'm guessing head gasket
