ok its been a while of the road for andy but he has finally got it back on the road :twisted:

and the m30 works a treat! chip from speedtouch is added so there is a claimed 236bhp (if i remember right?) and it does feel good for it :D

here is a quick picture of it:

not the best picture as the car is well dirty after testing if the LSD works in the wet dirt....... :burn: and guess what.......it works

after putting another starter motor on it (thanks jaffro :D ) she started up but would not run right......the AFM plug was not clipped in right :o: but Andy found it after a bit of woundering why he only had 5 pots running.
had some funny results from the straight through 3inch exhaust with only 5 pots running :

this is the good long blast we took it for after plugged the AFM in. in car footage for about 3 mins of open road - ish:
