Well show season is nearly upon us (1 day to go) wahoo!!
I still look forward to what is going to be done next.

There is not a lot planned for the next couple of months as i have been doing some serious planning into a turbo upgrade, doing quite a bit of research and investigation.

Over October/November 2013 the car will be changed from a "Fast Car" to one that will be competing with "Super Cars". I have decided to go with the GTX3071R Turbo, once other works are done and the Map goes on the car should be sitting between 525-550BHP.

I am not looking for stupid power as it could be mapped up to 600+BHP but want to keep it in the realms of reliability. So the car is looking nice and tidy, no further works are being done on the car unless they are helping towards the turbo upgrade.
