Just joined! Engine removed! what mods (if any)?
Discussion
I am really beginning to feel inadequate with just 415bhp to my name, and like I am way behind the curve! So many of you seem to have 500BHP as a minimum. I can't imagine the car going any faster than it does, not without leaving the driver behind. Anyway I am not addressing issues of power any more, reliability, economy, comfort, 30mpg - that's the ticket (anybody down rated to say 250BHP?).
Captainjp, really pleased you tried the car and thought it was okay (albeit too slow) - I am a complete rooky, so not even sure if I would have known whether it was going as expected or not (too busy trying to keep pulling my socks up). I trust the guys at Bespoke though so it wasn't too much of an issue, in fact when Mark drove it I had to ask him to slow down! Your right about the intercooler, Noble motorsport did the work when upgrading the power to a mere 415BHP and all the parts used were derived from them (including the exhaust).
I presume you have just bought your car (as you looked at mine), but you must also be a previous owner as you are long standing member on this forum. Did it take long to find a car you liked? Did you pay more or less than expected? It was difficult I thought to get a good car at the right price. As I said at the outset the prices I think have firmed even from 3 years ago when I was last looking intently (despite the cars being older of course).
Wessexrfc - another fellow Devonian with a Noble, it just gets better and better - it makes sense I guess, but I just haven't seen any. You too look as if you have been a long term owner - so another source of local knowledge for me to tap into (just kidding). Anyway I really hope we get chance to meet up sometime. Have you met GTO600? Are the other owners on the forum? Perhaps we should have a Devon Meet! It would be fun.....
