Oh good.

Looks like a rebuild is in order.

I was coming home from a show. Had a beemer glued to my rear bumper at about 90mph, so gave it full throttle in 5th. Car was accelreating fine, giving 14psi of boost right round to about 110mph (4k rpm?) then it went a little flat, then it cut out after smoking the beemer out behind me...

Had G60 green injectors and an SNS chip fitted on Friday.

It's looking more and more likely that I'm just going to have to get it bored out to 1341cc with forged pistons.

The 150bhp that it had before just isnt enough. I want to go faster.

Go Rob, will we see it at Mania this year?

of course. Not sure which engine or in what state of tune it'll be in...

I'm borrowing a G40 Cup Car bottom end from PitstopDevelopments until I sort out what is happening with mine.
