Had the car Rolling Roaded today at RS Tuning in Leeds and just thought id add this as I've never really had one done before.

Quite pleased really as i've only got a filter on it and it made 107.4hp. Sorta got a bug for decat/manifold/cams/chip etc now.. Mates starlet we went with made 256hp..

Ill put a pic of the graph etc up later.

8-) get the performance mods rolling :p

some of the cars there were animals,,mates glanza has TD04 turbo,forged inards, and literally stacks more done to it,,made around 270hp last time and 256 today because of leaking manifold but is still bloody quick.

I know mine would never be that quick but was certainly pleased with that today and will be spending a bit of brass on the engine soon.. 130hp should be relatively easy from right bits right??

love the yellow theme but dont over do it! glad your happy with the kit :thumbsup:

With the mods previously mentioned, cams/decat/manifold/chip that should be obtainable.

hey Rich, i was the one who spoke to you at the RS tuning meet, polo was looking good and 107 was a pretty good figure, albeit a little out of place with all those Starlets :lol:

cars off road now,,outta tax and mot,,going to be undergoing some pretty major changes which I've started cracking on with,,there was some dodgy wiring in the dash which I've sorted and gonna have dash trimmed while out and sound deaden all the inner bulkhead as theres suprisingly very little on there standard,,also going to be taking engine and box out as both need attention (6years of little maintenance lol) and will be smoothing the bay as much as practically possible,,engine will be having work while out and interior is gonna be pretty nuts too..few random pics i took tonight as i was bored..

Holding the bonnet up with a sweeping brush, can't knock it.

i think its a chimney brush dude..found it in the garage.

Going to start welding the engine bay up shortly and smoothing,,also ill be replacing washer bottle with a smaller one under the scuttle panel and the header tank also.Already removed charcoal canister and sorted the wiring and pipework on that and removed the battery to go in the boot. Under the battery tray was the loom which tbh looked hideous so this will all be re-routed through the chassis legs and all the bay painted while the engines out. Going to get some bits plated and powder coated and generally take my time on it and get it right..

Deadline is UD 2010 lol.

Sorry, not up on my brushes. :p I think it's the angle that makes it look like a sweeping brush.
