£3k ish I reckon. With all that work done to it you could run it for another 100k with no problem.

Thats great, There is quite a few other little things I have done since owning it as well. It really does want for nothing now and drives like new plus you don't see many of these with 80k on the clock either.

Forgot to mention it also has Launch Control fitted, very rarely use it but its good for a laugh now and then.

Thanks again  :smiley:

You have launch control fitted!? Seriously? Where did you have that fitted? Lots of wheel spinning?

Yeah, Got it fitted for free when I had it remapped, Big fish tuning at Stokesley, Probably charge you about £50 or less for just that. Dip the clutch and push the accelerator to the floor and it settles around 2200rpm, Sounds good though.

It does wheel spin a little but not as much as you would expect, Certainly makes it shift quicker off the line!

Decent effort  :wink:

Never seen that before. So is that foot planted on the floor, and the limiter keeps it at 2kish revs? Perfect revs for most torque  :smiley:

Yeah clutch and accelerator to the floor. I took the car in to get the injectors set up and a map and when I picked it up he had done it for free so cant complain really.

Like i said i only use it once in a blue moon as I don't want to wear the clutch out!
