I was going to write "Bellamy came up to me from behind and took me hard around Gerrards, he then kept up an awsome pace right until the end"

Great write up Jon, shame about the oil seal problem but at least its not a catastrophic failure and easily sorted.

Yes a few quid seal, just as important as any other componant on the car, every part has it's job and if one of those parts fail it has huge consiquenses.

You got any dyno figures for the car you can reveal Jon or is that top secret? Edited by John on 21st Apr, 2009. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Well at 8k with 7psi boost and no IC using a T3 you can work out an approximate power figure. I just have, very interesting.

do you think? I think the spring on the MPI seal is not held into the seal good enough, I find they often slip out of the seal, and then he will have the same problem as this time.
