Overkill much on the fuelling! :o

nope done a 100 mile journey on £15 max the other day with a blowing exhaust pretty good compared to my track 106 lol

I mean the size of the injector. only really need 315cc's on a k03s and they commonly good for circa 270ish bhp.

You had the choice of which one to use!! As one I had on my straight thru and the other was for how u got it (but there was a slight leak when I had it on so I put the other one in  :wink: )

You like It then? I'm still car-less!!!!

Thermostat is less then an hour job mate
