So i came home to a car with no MOT, a dead battery, broken AFM and ICV as well as a few other niggles She's certainly feeling neglected and in need of some TLC so i got a few goodies....



Going to be a long weekend i can't be fecked to sort her out but really need to, lots of little bits and bobs need doing so it's going to take a while but it'll be worth it when she's back on the road! Oh and i have a little something special going on soon well its not that special but its cool

LS2 then Sam, thats "impossible"

failing that, a nice X16XE on TBs, with a supercharger and maybe a turbo would be silly (and expensive)
