Thanks for the heads up Stewart, but I think I'll pass on that one!
It wouldn't be dignified to cut a bloody great hole in Austin's bonnet and have a dirty big blower sticking out funny car style so I couldn't see which hedge I was heading for yikes

Plus I don't think it would be good in the longevity stakes, I've seen what happens when the boost is kept too high for too long. It was an exciting part of a job I used to do, blowing up engines to find where the weak points were. smile

The extra BHP & torque is all well & good, but it comes at a price in terms of reliability & engine life.

I figure if I look after Austin, he'll look after me ......

Stick it on a Capri wink
