Yea I still speak to Jonny now tbh, but yea I was aware of the whole turbo project! :fuelfire: :headbang:

I think I’ll play it safe and just get the 3.0Si :)
Good move, I think what Jonny went through with that con-artist would have driven most people to drink :x
Rob
Yea it’s a shame it ended like that but at least it’s back with Jonny now and back to how it was I think :thumbsup:

Exactly this, you can alter the angle similar to how a rear spoiler works when you adjust the angle for downforce etc.
