Picked my baby up from the bodyshop today following headlight conversion and she looks STUNNING!
Couple of niggles, they had forgotten to reconnect the air temp sensor leading to a long drive to SFR @ Stockport with the MIL light and buzzer on constantly...easily remedied by Shane no worries.
When he opened the ECU however it had on the label 4.5 Red Rose! What does this mean exactly does it mean it has been upgraded or just the ECU or nothing at all? How many Red Rose Cerbs are there out there?
This little gem as well as the cars new look has really re-sparked my interest in the old girl!
Thanks for any info you can give me.

There is a bit of muck and mystery around the Red Rose but as you can see on attached, involves some porting, remapped ECU etc, I also thought there may be some suspension and brake differences - but not sure. Bottom line is it is supposed to add extra horses.

Be sure a post the pics of the headlight job, I keep looking at my beast and wondering if I should or not - may be i'll do the Nitrons first.
