Folks,

The car is almost complete so I'd like to speak to someone about getting it properly jetted and getting the map sorted on the megajolt.

Does anyone know of anyone knowledgeable in both bits of voodoo (with a rolling road) who can set the car up for me in the North West? I really don't want to travel to Northampton if I can avoid it.

JDM at Kirkbride, but dont think he'll have a vast array of jets etc, but then where does nowadays??
You could do what my brother did and get some jets and tubes etc that are 'in the range' where you think you'll need to be and then you've at least got some bits to swap out on the day.

Here for the craic..

Despite Minisports reputation as a shop they do have a guy on the rolling road who is very good.

I too recommend Rob Waddington at Minisport. Been a few times since 1997 and never had any complaints.

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

They have setup my car, they do a great job. Speak to Ade and say I gave you his details.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

I'd agree on Rob for carbs, but what's he like on MJ?

Thinking about it Andy, I think sleath knows his Su carbs pretty well too.

Been talking to sleath, he says he knows the Su carb like the back of his hand and hhas been profiling needles for the last 20years, but is booked solid for the next two weeks, which is always a good sign.

Yes you can cadge a lift up no Probs, I will speak to you soon, when you got a spare min I could do with a hand bleeding my clutch and brakes, our lass is not so good with an rts lol
