Here is Spudies new spud cooker, eat you heart out you southerners this is how you get horsepower out of an excel. Ed will sell this setup for anyone wanting to go the high tech route, not sure of the cost yet but I dont believe that it will leave much change out of 2K

i think he been reading the tech article in 'race' magazine
it shows there can be significant power gains from makin an air box or plenum that is of an 'ideal' volume and also from reducing inlet air temps

meh, they can take all the piss out of the name they like, I copied the name from one the most successful 2WD rally series in the world. :p You and I both know what's planned for next year, and what's already been put together! ;)

I don't think (hope) he was taking the piss anyway...

And were you planning on sharing that information with stakeholders that couldn't make it to the last meeting?

Oh, and living proof Ed has too much time on his hands. :D

that information was posted in the queensland section this morning for all the stakeholders to comment on

i think aboiut 80 people have viewed it so far but no comments

eds '40th anniversary of the moon landings' inspired intake system seems to have stolen the spot light

Awesome!
I need to gag myself though and not say what sort of attack that was.
