    Quick update....


    Thought I would get my finger out and get some cleaning done ready for PVS .....





    Before I dried off the paint work I noticed a difference in the water - guess which panel has been polished and waxed and which is just clean....








    Amazing stuff these cleaning products !


    Need to take the wheels off and give them a good clean inside along with the brakes and suspension, and then a good polish and wax all over .


    Even organised my cleaning products into a handy carrier ...










    Cheers


    Joff

    Well PVS is now done and dusted, hope everyone had a good time (apart from the chap in the Astra Burg with a knackered gearbox/driveshaft who stopped 1/4 of the way up the strip!) Here's a few pics ...

    That I really miss when I reminisce

    Quick update....


    Went here yesterday...





    And got back on the rollers....





    The guys at RS Tuning have done their magic and have got the engine running sweet. There was an intank fuel regulator (built into the fuel filter in the swirl pot) which was creating issues. This was bypassed and the map extensively reworked and we now have this .....





    253.4 bhp with 290 ft/lb torque .


    The injectors and airflow meter are now the limiting factors so an upgrade to VXR jobbies will be on the cards at somepoint in the future, but very happy with the results.
