Just bought a new clutch for the car as it was a bargain and didn't want to pass it up, £1100 for a carbonetics tripple plate clutch just another nail in the coffin for wedge on the car. The parts list has gone a bit silly at the moment but hopefully this is my last spend
Dunno as the last time on the rollers the ecu pulled 4 degrees timing and it only made 554bhp, so realsitically I would say about 570/580bhp?? It will probably be around or over the 600bhp mark when I get it back the end of next month.

very nice what u having done that should be fun tts vs nesf quarter mile
Be no good me driving it for a 1/4 mile day as I can't change gear quick enough for the good times, its a very low 11 or maybe a 10 second car with the right driver.
Oh its have the engine worked on, new clutch, new fuel setup, RCM verniers and new rotated pipe work and headers and other stuff which I have forgotten about. I'm not looking forward to the final bill but I am lookinbg forward to getting the car back

About £1800 with rear diff? If you got spend a mortgage on a car, you might aswell use it. Waste of money if ya dont!
