(I know you are keeping it as a road car too)I am sure you could save a 100kgs easy - maybe more, without changing the look of the car at all.

That MPH will see you into the 60's. any ideas what the problem was? and what the hell have you guys done to get the increase? I thought you said the new cooler was only for looks???? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Not sure what the problem is its really strage like a rev limiter at any rpm everytime I change gears its never happened before it will be something little and stupid I bet but it was slowing the car down big timeThe new cooler and piping may have giving me a little bit more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
