What mods have you got Adam?

Its got a K&N filter, some odd system that gives it a triple spark! (the theory sounded good when it was explained)and a mongoose/powerflow exhaust sytem, coupled with regular servicing. I'm not sure what else was done prior to me owning it, but it was owned by a mechanic!
when the new wheels go on, the wheel radius will be smaller too, so it should make an improvement I've been informed.
I dont really use it for racing about in though - I just like to pose

>Then get a mate with a stop watch to sit behind your ear. You >concentrate, he times.

yes, this is how it was

i did it several times, almost every time it was about 9 secs, on average 9, i was expecting 8

If your mate is in the car - you're gonna be slower
