Thumbs up Another thank you to rich @ FB Tuning

again a big thank you to rich top bloke and a class work again, well after having him up my power to 327 with fittin turbo injectors mappin etc the clutch ( std ) finaly gave up the ghost so i got on the phone to rich and got it booked in to have a uprated exedy clutch fitted and turned up to find him ready n waiting in his new workshop which once finished it gonna be awsome, although he didnt have his lift ready to do my clutch and so he just said ill just wip your engine out to do it as if it was a simple as washin a car lol, and sure enough within 4 hours the engine was out skimmed fly wheel clutch pressure plate fitted and back in and i was ready to leave and get on the road home again. bit of a trek for me to get to him but well worth it for the service he gives, spent the 4 hours askin him Q's bout my scooby and had very help advise in detail for me. awsome top marks again from me!

horrid drive home tho motorways where like rivers couldnt see a thing.
