He's not going to take passengers, while at the same time ensuring that Mick has Digweed, myself and another person (who'll have to be small to fit in with us!) on board!!!

Niall

That won't work, I would still catch him up.

Fey!

That won't work either because I can only take one passenger in a coupe :)

NO I rather think its either:

a) A penknife for my tyres

b) A bag of sugar for my fuel tank

c) A racelogic traction control system :)

d) A lotus elise :o

Car looked nice.

Supercharger ?? How much € ? Who fits it ?  How much HP when fitted ?

WHen ?

Well heres one example:

http://www.active-autowerke.co.uk/supercharger-system.shtml

There are various stages, from 440 bhp upwards.  Theres not much difference in the cost of the different stages on the face of it, but in reality they get more expensive as you go along because beyond stage one you need high flow cats, freer breathing backbox, uprated clutch and flywheel etc

You can of course get stage 1, and then add those items at a later stage.

ca-automotive can install them, and I am trying to organise attending one of their demo days at brunthingthorpe airbase to see if its something I would be interested in, but atm it is definitely the number one project for next year, hopefully before Augusts Ring Trip!!!

For more examples go here;

None of the above.

Racelogic is for the ring so only going to install it later on. E39 TC is crap for the ring and I am too chicken shi7 still to push it too hard without any aids, so the 20% slip the racelogic allows will be a nice compromise.

Don't be such a big girls blouse. Just turn it off man. Waste of money if you ask me.
