    Let’s get the bad bit out of the way.
    1995-2005 sometime between there went to PE to have some work done (remap) travelled a few hrs to arrive to be told the map guy was off ill. No one informed me, and was 2 hrs drive home gutted. You know what they say about meeting your hero’s. I was inspired by them and their work, and was crushed that day.

Then had my decat pipe modified to it just simply bolts inline with the decat and down pipe i adjusted the cable so it only shuts to about 80% maximum. So I use it coming home at night or driving through small towns city etc you can get electric ones and all sorts nowadays.

    First car was a spearmint MK1 Fiesta 1300 sport, on standard rims.
    Twin choke carb.
    One particular instance, raced back from Southend to Basildon with a MK1 Black XR2. He was pissed of as struggled to stay with me and had only just spent a lot of money on his car. Let’s be honest, doubt there would have been much between a 1300 & a 1600.
    The only thing different on mine, was I had access to a range of injectors. I had changed the originals. That was the only mod I did.

      @@mikefpe Hey there, perhaps this type of product suits for your engine, but unfortunately this type of rodes is out of stock now. I have one collaboration proposal, we can send you one universal turbo to reach the collaboration first, and once our rods are in stock, we will send to you soon to complete it!
