I would of said the Alternator when I had a listen to it at Donnington... Didn't Fred say alternator also?
Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner
I seem to remember a certain 188bhp / 900kg Clio being more than a match for a certain ITB'd and cammed Clio in Switzlerland.... ;)
We travelled over with Norfolk line... Dover - Dunkirk :)
Fuel is ever so slightly cheaper in europe, but not enough to notice a saving!
IIRC I used 8 or 9 tanks of fuel for the total trip (you'll easily use around one tank at the 'Ring... 5 laps saw 3/4 of a tank in my 172)
I was one of the people on the road trip you read / referenced :)
Just a word of warning though... 'the more the merrier' doesnt really apply, just with 4 cars we found it difficult at times staying together, especially in built up areas, It was so easy to loose each other!
I would say 3-4...
Looking good sir ;)
I would guess you have better aerodynamics / slipstream with the powdercoated subframe, the paint is smoother so less drag... Yeah?
