its my car and it hasnt gone pop yet mate!

bonnet was up a few times while i was setting it up, not quite sure how u know my name though lol, spooky!
any questions please ask, it needs to sell to make way for other things.
it runs 12psi currently on a single gasket and it does shift. the guy that says 16 8vt's are for pussys is wrong. this actually goes around a corner and has litterally no lag!
