I would never go on a thread and say someone's car was disgusting. If you don't like it, why waste your time posting at all?

I like it, a real sleeper and all the right work done. Well done.

I don't particularly like MG's but that is pretty cool, not to OTT on the outside, quite subtle compared to some of the horrors about.
And the engine spec sounds fantastic, nice work.

Agreed.Blue and orange scheme suits it, and if people think it's a boy racer with a tarted up 1.4 they'll get quite a shock.

A bit Max Power for my tastes, but whatever floats your boat!

They are alright in the corners though... Slapping a powerful engine in it doesn't make it suddenly have a seizure and Jump into a cows field.

Personally I would make it look standard as possible, and enjoy the look on peoples faces as you pull away from their "faster/better" car! Love the tuning work, just needs the sleeper treatment IMHO! Does it have an LSD yet?

Yeah its got a Tybe b LSD fitted smile

In all fairness its 2 fast, while engine is out getting checked for tollerances etc etc.. I might put my Rebuilt standard engine back in?

What you guys think..

The current engine drinks fuel roughly 10-15MPG
Goes like fk but i live in a country and its scary..

I wont get my money all back if i was to split the engine but i was thinking swapping the ported polished head and cams onto my standard block engine...

Running My Gt28Rs and standard injectors which will produce roughly 260bhp and be a better all round car and run 14psi...

Confused as to whats best to do?????

If the dashboard and headlining were black and the wheels graphite or silver it would look so much better.

I think 260bhp would be plenty for a dd

At least let us see the car with the proper engine in first before ripping it apart again. We only have a spec sheet to go on right now, when we really all want to see the oily bits in the car!

I love the blue dashboard. And the wheels.

Actually it just looks like silly fun!

It should be no worse or even better than a standard car MPG wise if it is mapped correctly.

Just a heads up to everyone here, this guy is a chronic liar.

No engine pics because its all lies. He's a member on http://www.rovertech.net/ name is "Harland292". This thread will prove my point.
