[DuncVolvoTurbo]

Mmmmm, I think I just made a mess! That is nearly perfect......but it could do with a set of clear rear lights from an S90. And guess what, I might be selling a set of them :D

[Taff - t5]

the fuel consumtion isnt that bad really getting about 470 to 500 out of a tank and it is running slightly rich because it has not been tuned yet

I was damming my own consumption! If I didn't spend as much putting juice in the T5 I'd look to invest in a classic.

Woe is me....

Can't wait to see the figures off it tho! I hope it can be tuned up to something really scary! Should worry quite a few of the scooby boys!

it will be tuned very soon just a stage 1 tune then i will turn it right up with a electronic boost controller and afr meter but i will be racing it at avon on on the 6/9/09 come and have a play yourself .i like my car because its looks so standard apart from the rims and exhaust

[thebadger]

Bit of a hike from Glasgow!

I will go racing one day, but I have too many bits I want to get sorted first.

Cheers for the offer tho!
