    1.2 16v.......

    mine pulled well with pannel filter, cat back and decat but in all honesty it wasnt a million miles better than it was standard, nothing like the gain you get on a 172 with they mods obviously but worth while doing all 3, one on its own though wouldnt bother

    got a big ding in my bonnet from a large stone that got flicked up the other day but fancied a carbon bonnet (but want to get it painted on the outside and left carbon underneath - stealthy!) just wondering if they are the lightest bonnets i can get or does anyone do a aluminium or fibreglass...

    7k revs

    you dont want prolonged use over 7200rpm (which it wont do as standard anyway) but 7k gear changes arnt going to do it any harm, but its past the powerband by then anyway, i change at 6800rpm as thats when mine is starting to tail off

    Falkland RR day.. (pic heavy)

    granted the guys positioned the fan at the wrong place first run and engine suffered heat soak on the first run (cured as said by removing engine cover and opening boot) but power figure wise the rollers were fine!
