Newbie with a serious tuning disorder.

The boring bits, insurance I presume you have to get a specialist, modified & guaranteed value type of policy.
What about VED (road tax) do you have to take the car for some kind of assessment to get the band ?


Also can't wait for the Vid

ten smiley faces for every cylinder that's running in my Z4 project. Finally I have a fully running M5 V10 engine that starts on the key first time. I was stunned with how well the Specialist Components ecu ran my Z4 , they have produced a cracking ecu and map . Once I've tidied up engine bay and pulled it out of the workshop I'll take a video of it running and try and post up as I've never done a video.
It's been a year in the making and this is my own special Xmas present to myself.

Hi Stevie, i've been following this thread with a streak of admiration/jealousy as have many others i expect, i'm really looking forward to the finished article, awesome job mate

wow, that is truly awesome. So how long before we get to see her at a few meets? I think we've all given up hope on Project Marmite, so this will take our interest :wink:

 

[Jasey]

I think it needs a little more presence ;-)

 

[Stevie.w]

Not the best video boys but lets you at least hear it running. I'll need to do better next time.
You don't hear how much it sounds like a bike engine in the vid, but believe me its :evil:. Everyone that's seen it run has been shocked with how it sounds. Me thinks it'll be rather audible on the road

Looks awesome.... I'd love to own something like that especially with a manual box

Oh and the best part of 560/580bhp to boot. Spare underwear tucked under the passenger seat just for those oh s**t moments.
