Very true mate. 2 map sessions and an oil service to go before I can even contemplate unleashing the beast.

Even so, the 20 odd mile drive back at under 3000 revs, off boost, no labouring, was an absolute joy, it feels so good to be back behind the wheel again. Still grinning like the proverbial.

Any news yourself???

Or you double it twice!

Fook it's been an expensive year. Up to 12k spend this year.

I will have it run in and 2nd mapped ASAP. Miles wise, it will be ready by middle October, just depends on JGM and his schedule now.
