sounds good, but i hope it goes bang on a dyno!!

i wouldn't be too impressed if the engine oil was deposited on the road and a bike came along or a lorry!!

putting a hole in a piston is one thing, a rod coming through the bottom end is another.

be safe mate.

yes mate it will more than likely go on the dyno if anywhere it was a figure of speach sorry. i certainly dont tend to push the engine that hard on the road or even the track for it to go pop as its normaly set on safe boost levels

Yes I am going to Snetterton in February. Thinking back..........I seem to remember a similar S14a @ RAF Mareham earlier this year with the same holes in the front bumper :?:

Memory isn't what it used to be :oops:

Won't be much more powerful, it will just make a hell of a lot more noise
