I always thought there was nothing to be gained by putting them on the exhaust side. I would go for 4. |

Well as I have booked the Mk1 in at SER on Friday for RR I had a big To Do list, so today I got done- 1. Fit new Speedo cable 2. Fit new stem valves seals 3. Knock up an oil catch tank (for Avon) 4. Fit new rear view mirror Went out for a test drive tonight and all was good. So not a bad day’s work. Simon. I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf
