Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He That would be great Tony well I'll drop you a PM nearer the time to confirm we are still going!

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Yes they have worked out really well Mark and I'm really happy with the power it's made, the Polo rad is a really good option from the pictures I have seen of them fitted it does look to create a good amount of...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I thought that myself about Mark's torque! Thanks, lol I can't say I was expecting it to be an issue but I'm sure we'll get it sorted :) Yes Matt and I discussed putting a set of Megane injectors on in the...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Hi Mark, Thank you yes over the moon with how it went :) Yes we did its removed and lower rad fitted to allow for the long throttles! Sounds good to me and I can vouch for the fact that with 215 it fly's and...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I used to have to really feather the power in when exiting rocket in my 197 so it will be interesting to see how this compares then. I'm really looking forward to trying the car round circuits that I know and...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I can imagine :D I don't know why but I wasn't expecting it to make anywhere near as much difference as it has done to the way you can put the power down. It will make even more difference once i'm used to it...

I used to have one from Machine Mart but it wasn't great, then bought a Halfords pro one and its perfect I use it every week and think it cost around £50

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I forgot to mention in the update yesterday, The quaife diff is great! you have to adopt a different driving mentality but boy does it put the power down early and very well :) Thank you Kenny I am over the...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Hi Jonny :) Sorry I got totally carried away when I saw the car and forgot to get any pics of the exhaust although I do have a vid from today which shows the sound nicely :) Sounds good mate what you having...

Great pictures thanks for putting the ones of mine up mate :) They are all really good photos! I have had a look through the pictures that my friend took using my camera but they are all pants I'm afraid! Do you mind if I use a couple of the ones of my car for my thread? :)
