Is this the Gold/Red car that was at Brands?

If so, can say it seemed quite fast.

If not, sorry.

But I've bumped the post anyway.

(ps - if he sells it, I'm gonna be real pissed of cos I had to break mine )

Always a shame to do that much work (front mount intercooler) and not chop and reverse the plenum too. Saves a few feet of piping.

It doesnt save much in terms of percentage volume of the whole system and on top of that you lose your air con.

Looked into it many times, and unless you need a lot more space in your engine bay for playing, the cons seriously outweigh the pros, and reduced lag is not one of them!

Take that from experience.

Many thanks Markus.

Sorry, don't know too much about the car, was only asked to put the ad up. If you want, give the guys a call.

No problem Cem.

Car did get some attention at BH, did sound awesome, and did seem very quick.

My only worry was that when I looked at the brakes it looked like it was still on standard 4-pots! would have though it would have had a set of AP 6-pots or something.

still, very nice car.

He also drove like an ar$e at the start of Brands, obviously not having listened to the briefing at all & overtaking on the brakes & through corners Stef had a word & he calmed down...

Bloody quick though

Hi ya John & Co.

Yeah this car has done only 6,000 miles. I know you were just kidding but I thought I'd better confirm why really.

The guy who had the car initially tuned purchased the base Scooby as he was going to spend so much on it. The fella by all accounts is well loaded and just wanted a top notch Scooby. He hardly drove the car, got bored (as you do, not) and gave it to a garage to sell who he buys his cars from. I think he part ex'd it for a Bentley or something. That's it really.

Oh yeah and Ron told me he got told off at Brands. I don't know. Will we EVER grow up. Hope not.
