= 82.7 KW at the wheelsafter all the time and hassle of the last year and a bit im now happy with my end result, a car that i can drive on a daily basis but when i want to wind it up to 6500rpm can go as quick as alot of modern "performance" cars.
im already considering larger movies int hee ngine compartment, but not for a while, in the near future the car will be seeing:
- new dash pad
- new door cards
- new shocks
now for some pics, all these are basically from the weekends dyno day :)
