    ,.,

    im guessing that its had head gasket problem,and found more internal problems,or future problems,ie corroded head etc so he was told to sell it quick while it still runs.
    otherwise why would he be selling it after spending all that money ,time and effort on it.......seems strange...............yep another ebay donkey lol.

    I heard that a fake air scoop and wide arches increases your power by upto 1000bhp!!!
    Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....

    I think that depends on how you fit them.....if you stick them on with a tube of no nails then 1000bhp is possible.

    But surely the best way to get lots of power is to simply fit a massive tail pipe? or 2!
