Well hardly seems like the time has gone so fast since I posted the completion of the conversion to Griff power and the creation of the Gredge.

So with 10k miles on the engine, a great trip to Germany to test reliability and performance. The Ford Focus rear end smash and subsequent repair and respray and the final push with induction to get to the target of a real 300 BHp on the Hotwire system.

So I have just done a good session at JFA Maidstone Dyno and with some final tweeks, got over the finish line with 307 BHp and 317 Ft lbs which is a great number for such a light car. So ready for the summer!

Apologies for the camera work learning the video tricks! Turn up the volume yes

Seen and heard it in the flesh very nice, now that projects over you need to occupy you mind with another one, maybe a Cerb ?
