You should be able to run it in mod prod upto 2000cc. Would be quite good. There are a couple of high power R5GT turbos competing against lots of 205Gtis.

Planning on not blowing mine up. Haven't got a big budget, and its overtime thats paying for it. People will help out, which saves the killer labour charges. *wink*

Are you going to be racing at Coombe on the 15th Sept?

Can anyone confirm my understanding of the following:

12.4.2 "bodywork not forming part of the unitary construction may be changed for ones of a different material"

Does this mean I can cut out the boot floor & fit a CF one?

12.4.9 it is prohibited to cut holes in any panels unless specifically permitted

Anyone know where I can find out what is permitted?

Hopefully Castle Combe Rob.
Boot floor I would assume as structual. You can remove material from inside doors, boot, bonnet etc. I think alot depends on the championship your entering & their rules. Example....miglias have carbon bits, where the metro regs don't allow it. I'm sure its the same for hillclimbs & sprints.
