Bob, Dave's car was pretty good apart from a duff downstream HO2 sensor and a dodgy fan resistor, despite being an 1800
Give me a shout and I'll pop up and check your new MAF, and sort you a spare key


What are you on about Chris, as I've X-Powered your car TWICE, you must be running 272PS now

I nearly agree with the above quote, but the S2 will not give you +5bhp, more like 20+ Take out the CAT and that will give about 5bhp more....

Sadly not, Brian was referring to the fact that he has performed the upgrade on my car twice as the first time was sort of a test / trial / hackabout way, then he reapplied it the correct method as he did with yours. So I'm on the same as you

That said....plans are always afoot......
