Considering I had an engine fire after it was fitted and all the fault finding and repairing. With it still not running 100% it had an increase of 50% power at the rear wheels. There is still more in it Matt.

I read your thread on lextreme, very saddening. An engine fire would be a pita for sure.

Hope you get it running full noise, keen to see how much power you can make!

Cheers
Matt.

I think it was part of an optional "cold weather" package.
