    ok so i took my JCW S out to day for a run 2 see what if any diffrence my gtt manafold made when havin a bit of fun


    so here we go i found a nice road some nice twisty bits :) and some nice straight bits (mostly twisty)what a road it was i found.

    so off i went pushing pretty hard what a nosie:evil::evil: that was coming off the mini it was like a rally car real loud when u go over 4000 revs and the pops well every time i took my foot off the gas pedeal it would pop and spit away.

    i found with the perfmance side of it that it makes the power smother and more resposive I M O it makes it better throu all the gears but more so in 4,5 & 6th


    even at speeds over 100mph(not that i was doing that kind of speed ) the car still wants 2 pull when u push the gas pedeal


    all that is left to say is what a bit of kit sounds so good

    stoney one happy chappie :):I:clown::approve::)
    New sig coming soon
